T-Mobile’s 3G network has been a long time coming. After winning the 1700Mhz AWS spectrum that it needed to launch its own special flavor of 3G networks in the US, T-Mobile was forced by the US government to stand-by as bureaucratic agencies proceeded to vacate the spectrum. And, after initially launching their 3G network in [...]

With T-Mobile's 3G network up and running, we're eager to see T-Mobile bring some serious 1700Mhz 3G-compatible handsets into their stable. Some eagle-eyed detective work by Cellphonesignal has uncovered FCC documents that clue us in to a new T-Mobile 3G handset - the Sony Ericsson Bella. We're looking for T-Mobile to pick up the Sony Ericsson [...]

[Update] It looks like T-Mobile's 3G network is good to go on the data side. I wish I was in New York and owned a handset with 1700Mhz UMTS to test out the 3G network, but reports indicate that speeds are as expected. Full 3G is better than voice-only 3G on T-Mobile's 1700Mhz AWS spectrum. Post updated. Talk [...]

Just how long can Motorola milk their RAZR brand? Well, they're going on 4 years now - ever since the Motorola RAZR first revved-up the industry in 2004. We can't blame them for trying to wring as much revenue out of the RAZR's success, but the whole thing is starting to get a little tired [...]

We’re not surprised to see this Nokia 6263 hit T-mobile’s network, but we are excited to see that it’s finally gone live on T-Mobile’s network. You see, the FCC already dropped some little morsels of information on this 3G, 1700Mhz WCDMA handset - we’ve been expecting it for some time now. And, with the launch of the Nokia 6263, we’re left thinking that T-Mobile’s getting set to flip the switch on their 1700mhz 3G network . The Nokia 6263 is basically a US-spec Nokia 6267, and as such, will be sporting nearly the same internals - 2.2 inch QVGA display, Bluetooth, microSD card slot, and media player. However, the camera loses a few (hundred thousand) pixels - downgraded to 1.3 megapixels from the Nokia 6267’s 2 megapixel camera. And, the Nokia 6263’s dual-band (850/1900Mhz) GSM radio makes sense for surfing the US airwaves - and is more than enough to work on T-Mobile’s 1900Mhz band. What really gets our juices flowing for this S40 device is the 3G support on the 1700Mhz band that T-Mobile is probably going to launch/announce/do something about tomorrow . If an S40 monoblock feature phone with support for T-Mobile’s 1700Mhz gets you excited, then a quick trip to your neighborhood T-Mobile dealer should be just what you need.

Well what do we have here? Is T-Mobile is planning to take their anticipated 3G network online by December 6 2007? According to reports from The Inquirer, it seems T-Mobile may just be working on launching (or announcing their launch-plans) their long-awaited high-speed wireless network in just a few weeks time. There’s some conflicting information (we thought T-Mobile was set to launch their 3G network on the 1700Mhz frequency band ) and a good dose of wacky Brit-English in that INQ article, but the juicy bits are all we care about. A T-Mobile rep is apparently the source of this rumor - referencing an internal document indicating that T-Mobile would be announcing 3G network availability in the Washington State area “o n or before 6 December 2007.” If that’s the case, we can only assume that the government agencies occupying T-Mobile’s 3G spectrum has finally seen fit to pack up their things and turn over the frequencies to their new owner. Of course, we’re assuming T-Mobile had a lot to do with pushing helping said government agencies off of the 1700Mhz spectrum that is now under T-Mobile’s control - we just can’t believe that any bureaucracy was able to get their asses in gear and actually accomplish anything before its deadline (which is set for next decade, by the way). We’ll just have to wait and see what happens on, or around, December 6. It’s excitign to think that T-Mobile is finally taking the plunge into the world of 3G.
