"T-Mobile is the first carrier to launch the even faster HSPA+ in the U.S. While other carriers talk about 4G plans and the promise of compatible devices, T-Mobile will speed ahead with HSPA+ deployments across the bulk of its 3G footprint in 2010, delivering mobile broadband speeds with a home broadband-like experience. And the best thing about the HSPA+ upgrade is that it’s backward compatible.so many of the 3G-enabled devices T-Mobile customers are using today will automatically be faster at no additional cost, so customer experiences could be faster without upgrading or spending more money-- a RARITY in consumer electronics."

I understand their promises and plans. As you can see on the Article that i've posted,
Starting today, the entire 3G network of T-Mobile in the United States should be able to provide downlink speeds of up to 7.2 Mbps (currently 3.6 Mbps). We say "should", because user reports suggest that some areas are still stuck with vanilla 3G and its modest (as of year 2010) data throughput.
