my house internet isent even that fast.

but im not giving up my keybard, and 8 hours playign video with a bigger display and twice the proccessor, sorry but no. i wont believe that untill i see it.

I kep seeing this cliche of GSM not having 3G service anywhere. I guess we can thank Verizon for the ads. The fact of the matter is, T-Mobile and AT&T have both been rapidly upgrading their networks. I know AT&T has problems in certain cities with too many users, but in most cities they are fine. And T-Mobile has good 3G service in just about all the major cities now, and is rolling it out to the rural areas (and they are rolling out 21 meg HSPA+, which is the best 3G in the nation).

GSM is still better than dial up even without 3G though. You still get EDGE pretty much everywhere, which is usually around 250-300k or so. So it's not like a real broadband speed, but it's still way better than dialup.

Well T-mobile's service was a joke for me here in Atlanta. No service in the house, edge speeds in most places.

T-Mobile's service was a joke pretty much everywhere until recently. They are still in the process of rolling it out, but they are doing it faster than anyone else right now, and they have the major cities covered at this point.

No man, they are rolling out 3G that is as fast as the 4G Sprint is trying to roll out. They aren't just rolling out a 1.5 meg tops run of the mill 3G. They are rolling out 21 meg HSPA+, which is the best in the nation.

And they are doing this on a really fast timeline here, not taking their time with it.

It was a while back say like in 2003 and when I say it sucked ass I'm talking about everything...call reception, customer service, reception....etc.

If the HD2 comes to sprint then I would probably replace my trusty Vogue with it.
