08/21/2005 20:40:18 EST Debate Over Cell Phone Towers Growing
By JIM SALTER

After two years of boisterous meetings and litigation, the 150-member Southampton Presbyterian Church surrounded by closely-spaced red-brick homes is at odds with its neighbors over an issue that has nothing to do with theology.

T-Mobile plans to construct a cell phone antenna along the chimney of the two-story, 89-year-old white-stone building. In return, the company will pay rent to the church.

"That revenue is in exchange for our potential well-being, our peace of mind and o...

Can anybody tell me if the sony gc79 network card can get 3g? Or is it still just wi-fi?

T-mobile is a good value, you just have to have realistic expectations about your coverage... 😉

"Ricke said then that Deutsche Telekom would decide by the end of 2005 how it will proceed with costly investments in a 3G network, either bidding alone or gathering partners for a joint bid to operate one."

""On the contrary, we are now in the process of preparing for the next step. That includes taking part in the tender for new (wireless) spectrum," he said in remarks posted on the paper's Web site ahead of publication on Saturday.

"The speculation focused on the U.S. subsidiary's lack of a 3G network and entrenched competition from bigger rivals like Sprint Corp. and Verizon Communications Inc.

comments? opinions?

why the huge difference in quality if both GSM?

Is there any difference between the European version & the American version unlocked of the black razr? Also does the European version have AIM built in like the American one? I am thinking of getting one from Florida but it's a European one with video in it. I am going to use it with T-Mobile USA. This is my first unlocked phone and I was wondering once I get it do I need to call T-Mobile to lock it with them or can I just put the sim card in and leave it? Thanks!

hey, I'm considering getting a T-Mobile phone but was curious about something. They seem to have really good reviews in terms of customer service and stuff, and they appear to have a good line-up of phones, but what do you guys think about their coverage?

I've looked at their coverage map, and it just seems to be spotty, which isn't necessarily a big deal since I live in a bigger city, but I am wondering if anyone knows what their goals are. They seem to be sort of the "smaller" (in the US at least) carrier with cheaper prices, and friendly plans, but not as good of coverage all over. Are they going to continue to expand and try to challenge the other big carriers, or continue to be strong and do well in their little niche?

Who do you think is a better carrier

NOTE: I posted this in the v360 forum, but there were some interesting tidbits in it that I thought a few of you might like to read. Enjoy.

After talking to someone at t-mobile on the phone and getting nowhere, I went into one of their stores ready to just settle for something they have in-stock right now since my Nokia 3650 is old and falling apart.

It was killing me because the Samsung slider and the Nokia flip don't friggin' have Bluetooth which I have grown used to. Anyway, out of desparation, I just started talking to the rep there about the lack of Bluetooth in the t-mobile lineup and how old the v330 is and he actually said they have a replacement coming. He has actually seen it and said it would be exclusive to t-mobile.

T-Mobile should buy Suncom

CSTX(Consumer Solutions Texas) did Cellular Tests with 4 Major Cellular carriers (T-Mobile, Cingular, Sprint, Verizon) and we have come to the conclusion that T-Mobile is the best bet for your money. Our test results will be posted on our website (currently being updated). But can be sent to you. Email counsumersolutionstx@yahoo.com for the results. Website will be posted shortly.

Are there people who are on T-Mobile's largest plan, the "Get More Supra?"

I am on the smalles plan, the basic plan. :-)

What plan do you all have, and what do you think is the most popular plan?

This is for the customer's out there, and I want your honest opinion. I don't for the life of me understand why it is that it seems for every little problem that you run into, you have to call customer care. Then, when we tell you yes, you broke your phone and no, we are not going to give you a new one for free, you think that by asking for a supervisor, or calling back in that someone will give it to you. Keep in mind, we do back each other up, and when one says no, almost all will. Or when you go over your minutes, and you want a credit, that somehow it is our fault that you couldn't just use a simple #646# to check your minutes throughout the month? Is it really that hard to do that??? Honestly, why can't you just be an adult and si...

thanks

A friend just bought the Voq Professional phone on closeout at Woot. It is set for the Cingular frequencies, and she currently has a T-Mobile account.

Is the 850/900 issue a big deal in the Alabama area? Or are there enough 1800/900 frequencies that she might see decent phone service.

Thanks for any info you can provide.

We might test it with my Cingular SIM to compare the difference.

Hi everyone I just wanted to ask other If I should stick with T-mobile by extending my contract or I should get cingular. I already have T-mobile.The only reason I like cingular is the selection of there phones. Does anyone have any clue of any tight phones or handhelds coming out for T-Mobile. Plz tell if you guys know about any new upcoming phones.

Hey,

I'm not sure if this has been covered in any other thread, but I just got a brand NEW (not refurb) V330 in exchange for my V600.

I was having problems with my V600, including:
crashing
freezing
phones calls drop after 15 minutes
phone was also powering off by itself

T-Mobile offered to exchange my phone and that's what I did 3 times, for a refurb V600. The same problems continued and finally about a week ago Customer Care offered a free new V330 in exchange for my old V600.

I was a little disappointed in the design of the phone but now, I love my V330!

THANK YOU T-MOBILE!

After T-Mobile denied to interview me based on my last assessment I created a brand new profile at T-Jobs. I re-applied to the retail sales rep positions and now I have the email from T-Mobile to take the online assessment. How do I pass these assessments?! I REALLY want to work for T-Mobile and I am the perfect candidate for the job, but T-Mobile's silly assessments gets in the way.

What kind of answers do they want: a passive person, an assertive person, or an agressive person?

Please help me! I want to join T-Mobile's team! Thank you!

Anyone know where I can get replacement rubber bumper things for the Nokia 3220? The
T-Mobile store near my house has nothing, and on the Nokia website they only sell a few replacement housings and that's it. Anyone found them anywhere???
