I have read some of the comments about why Sprint can call there network 4G, and well it is 4G. Fourth Generation cellular is broadband speed access for data applications, and they have it. All companies fib about the capabilities that they claim to have and if you really want to poke at a company, poke at At&T. With there Ad campain as “the worlds fastest network”… they cant touch Sprint or TMobil. Verizon with theyre deep pockets still dont have a 4G product and handsets to the network that they are building wont be available till next year 3rd Quarter.
I have tested both networks and they are both fast… but Sprint’s ClearWire 4G is faster…. I am Still switching to Tmobil for now… Sprint outsourced all the network ppl to Ericsson and well they dont care about anything except tickets… the network is suffering. Any Sprint Folks reading this Start complaining now if you care about your network. Customers complain if you want out of the contract to a crumbling network. (90% of all the high tech guys are gone)

I don’t care what they call it. I just want some type of broadband service in Pensacola Fl. My wife’s Verizon phone “nothing fancy” runs circles around my galaxy s. This is the best part she pays LESS for her data plan than I do!

I think they should call it “5G” since it’s faster than sprints 4G. They could have an entire marketing campaign around that.

please tell me where you live and what radio you have cause i live in albuquerque and my 3g speeds suck

@ .1 – .8 mbs :(

If you live in an area where T-Mobile decided to build out HSPA, and you don’t travel much, you will probably really enjoy the service. The issue as I see it with T-Mobile will once again be coverage. T-Mobile’s HSPA coverage map will be smaller than its EDGE coverage map in almost all markets. To sum it up. T-Mobile has the smallest voice and slowest (Edge) data coverage of the 4 major carriers; Verizon, AT&T, Sprint. T-Mobile’s HSPA footprint will be smaller than their Edge coverage in most markets. What this means to the consumer is that your phone will transition form high speed to slow as soon as you leave most metropolitan areas. Customers that work downtown and live in the suburbs and rural areas, will really notice that they are not getting what they desire 100% of the time. T-Mobile’s technology works well, but their coverage does not compare.

J harper u are an IDIOT, all caps. You must be a sprint employee or something. Fyi nexus 1, mytouch 3g, cliq, and cliq xt will all be able to utilize the hsap+ speeds, do some research before you open your mouth and stick your foot in it. Also the data cap is only on the webconnect stick, and not phones!
