Re: Real Google Phone (Not Droid) Check Out

So far the phone itself looks really exciting, but if it only goes to AT&T or TMobile it might as well be a Razr.

Re: Real Google Phone (Not Droid) Check Out

I don't know breakmyfootoff. TMobile is set to launch their new HSPA 7.2 network before the end of the year. It is sporting speeds 10x that of 3g on Verizon.

My thinking is that this phone will be launched in co-ordination of the turning up the HSPA 7.2 system... and it very well could be... and I hate to use such an abused term... the real iPhone killer.

Auctually, they're getting ready to not only lite up 7.2, but 21meg in some places. If t-mobile has good coverage in your area, the speed/price combo is starting to look very very enticing.

About T-Mobile, I wonder if they are putting up towers here near my house? I wish I knew.

Re: Real Google Phone (Not Droid) Check Out

Well, regardless of what comes down the pipeline next, I think it's good time to launch a phone like this riding in the wake of the Droid(s). I hope Verizon continues this trend as well because it's setting a precidence for the 700mhz spectrum that they now own.

Here in NC, Tmobile is pretty much just an urban option for Raleigh and Charlotte, pretty much everyone else has to be on some other service...

Hey Courtney! Glad to be here, I've been lurking for a while, and I've sent an obscene amount of people to this site over the years, but only now that I actually have a smartphone do I really feel I can contribute so hopefully you'll be seeing more of me. So far I really just hang out in the Motorola Droid forum.

~Yeah I am new to being a smartphone user... but I've been working with them and troubleshooting issues for them since the early days. My first cell phone was a Nokia 101... ah to be labelled a drug dealer just for owning a cell phone... those were the days.
