I really don’t believe it’s a coincidence that T-Mobile USA took a nice little interim step (to the upcoming 21Mbps HSPA+ action)Â today in announcing that its entire 3G footprint has now been upgraded from 3.6 to 7.2Mbps. The Google Android Press Event most definitely has something to do with this
Considering that AT&T won’t be at 100 percent 7.2Mbps coverage for some time to come, this is a nice little boost — of course, T-Mob’s got a smaller network to contend with, so it’s a trade-off for customers.
We know of at least one Android VIP hacker that noticed the difference today, did you ?
cyanogen Speedtest on T-Mobile today: 521K/s down, 127K/s up. I think we definitely got a boost today.
