Re: Sprint forcing premium data on ALL SMARTPHONES

You know what they say about those who brag about their manhood? You are trying to compensate for the lack their-of. On to more important things. I think I can rest the case that T-Mobile's so-called HSPA+ aka "4G" is definitely not faster than Sprint's 4G. You can accept it or not but I just proved it in Friendswood/League City, TX. Enjoy your non-4G/non-HSPA+ HD7... nice phone but still limited in OS functionality and definitely slower data speeds than the G2, which in turn is MUCH slower than Sprint's 4G on my HTC EVO.

So to sum up my thoughts on the $10 premium data fee. Is it worth it? Absolutely! Am I thinking I'm paying too much for my service compared to other carriers? No way! Do I think T-Mobile has faster 4G. Absolutely not! I say pay the premium data with Sprint and enjoy your faster unlimited 3G and 4G!

I was only stating the facts as I found out first hand. I had some time to kill today so I thought Id go check out the T-Mobile 4G phones. I'm not hating on T-Mobile. I'd give them a try if I was out of contract with Sprint. T-Mobile seems to get nice phones before other carriers.
