Yeah, but how accurate is that site, vs. speedtest.net? The same goes for Mobilespeedtest.com, or whatever that other site is.
Just use this link for "speakeasy" (same provider, different page):

Does anyone know if you have to call TMobile to update them if you put the SIM in a new device? I got some cheap free phone and told them to put the smartphone plan since I would be using the N900 in the future and they did it. But the cheap phone was limited to 2G. When I first got the N900 the epc was internet2 but I switched it to epc. Though I'm not sure if I need to call TMobile to let them know to get the speeds reported. I'm usually in the DC area for school and work and the epc APN works.
Either plan will give you access to the 7Mb network...whether you are in range of a 7Mb tower is another issue.

Well, if I'm using a testing site, which gives different speeds, for different file sizes, one of which is faster han the provider has provisioned, I wouldn't rely on it...not just my experience, not just on the 900, and not just T-Mobile.
However, if the mobilespeedtest site is working for you, good luck with that. I'm just a "user" of the site, not an admin, so my "experience" is what dictates my decision regarding continued use.

I was just wondering if TMobile has to do anything to do the SIM card (even remotely).

I'm impressed. I tested my N900 through CNET's bandwidth test, bandwidthplace.com, and speakeasy.net. Ended up averaging 3mb/s download and a 1mb/s upload with full bars in Sacramento.
Sure is going to suck when AT&T ****s it all up for everyone...

I tested did 4 consecutive tests.
The latency was always in the mid 300ms's. Download and upload numbers were in the same range as above.
