Well T-Mobile is finally getting with the program. They have just announced 3G UMTS/HSDPA support in New York with a continued rollout in major markets throughout the year.
The only thing that concerns me is the fact that every carrier is trying to run 3G on a different frequency. This means that roaming with 3G is [...]

Now this one just surprises me. The Pearl is one of T-Mobile’s hottest smartphones. Also the new Pearl 8120 can support their leading Hotspot@Home technology over WiFi. So it makes me wonder why they are one of the last carriers in the United States to get the Pearl 2 with WiFi! Even AT&T got it before [...]

You can pick up the 8820 currently from T-Mobile’s website for [...]

I was reading this post by Zach on BoyGenius regarding T-Mobiles latest Q4 results. I am surprised that T-Mobile is managing to stay relevant regardless of them being behind in the race towards 3G/4G. I always thought that data was the new voice for wireless carriers but T-Mobile seems to be proving that wrong. T-Mobile [...]

Steven, the admin of Themes4BB, has released a VERY slick New York Yankees theme for the BlackBerry 8300 series. The theme is in Zen style and looks nothing like his previous sport team themes. This one is all Yankees. The titlebar is nice and themed and the icons are gorgeous.
This has to be one of [...]

I took a serious double take when I read this little bit of news on Engadget mobile a few days back. I did not realize the full ramifications of the article until later. I know many users who wanted T-Mobile Hotspot@Home were annoyed when the price went up from $9.99 a month to $19.99 a month for new [...]
