I've used T-Mobile for the last two years and had excellent coverage within the Mid-TN area. I had a simple Sony Ericsson 3G flip phone that I would regularly tether to my laptop and that was always a good experience. Decent speeds and rarely a disconnect, even on the highway. There's no hacking to get it to work, either. T-Mobile just lets you do it. I would also drop the sim card into an old iPhone 3G and had good results with that. One of the best benefits of T-Mobile is still having access to data service when in a concentrated crowd of a few thousand people. When I had AT&T, data and text service would be non-existant at a music or sporting event with a lot of people. T-Mobile always fared well. -- Cale Mooth ------------------------------------------------------ http://www.midnightcheese.com/ @calem -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "NLUG" group.
