T-Mobile USA has taken the first commercial step in the roll-out of its third-generation (3G) wireless network, launching its UMTS/HSDPA network in New York City. Also, contrary to some early reports suggesting only voice service might be available immediately, the network will be data-enabled from the start.
T-Mobile plans to continue the rollout of its 3G network across major metropolitan markets through the year. By year's end, T-Mobile expects its high-speed data network will be available in those cities where a majority of its subscribers currently use data services.
Yay!
