what's with the t-mo hate? it's not their fault that they got a very weird 3g band. there's not enough 2100 spectrum available when they decided to go 3g and only the 1700 was left so they don't have a choice since they are already late in entering 3g...

as for coverage, yes it's smaller but the network mostly focus in the cities than in the nowhere or suburbs. wider coverage is better but that doesn't mean t-mo's that bad...

focus on bigger networks? sprint and verizon might be bigger but the technology they use is impractical. cdma is not as flexible as gsm where just swap sim cards and you're good to go. you can't even give a cdma phone to anybody especially overseas. how about att? yes it's a gsm but the network is collapsing because of too many users. quality is bad.

right now, only t-mo offers a REAL unlimited data plan without any cap...
