Who has T-mobile?

[weaktwos]

Since Nextel is lagging on the bluetooth enabled phones, as well as a good internet plan, I've been contemplating ditching the Nextel phone and moving to T-mobile. They have some nice promotions on gprs enabled phones...also they would be capable of International use.

The kicker is with these promotions, I can get much more of what I want for a little less per month. Of course Nextel's cellular service has been pretty darned kick ass, insofar as reception.

Who has T-mobile, and what do you think?

Round these parts...

Sprint is a great choice... verizon and sprint both have good networks here, and both offer bluetooth-enabled phones. However, Sprint phones can be "semi-licitly" used as unlimited data modems at 144kbps, and you can get the magnificent Treo 650 to work as a "semi-licit" data connection over bluetooth to a laptop/etc.

However, I have no idea if in your area either of those carriers have good networks, never having tried using my phone there.

Well, Nextel merged with Sprint, or at least they are trying to. If their joint product provides a good internet solution, maybe I would stick around.

If you're patient, yeah... but I've heard figures of around 18 months quoted as the time when they'll be able to even start integrating their services technically... and it'll be a tough integration since they are so different (CDMA1x for sprint and iDEN for nextel)
