Why would they do that?! I love how it is now, i feel like if they switched to PCS it wouldnt be as fast. Plus if they switch wouldnt that put all current HSDPA HSPA+ phones useless?

They're doing it so they can unofficially provide the iPhone as well as other GSM phones and to expand coverage. It is my understanding that the current phones will continue to work as they are today, only the newer T-mobile phones and unlocked GSM phones will be able to take advantage of the refarm, if in any event where there's no 3G coverage on 1700/2100mhz then it will fallback to use 3G on the more crowded PCS band instead of going to 2G.
