T Mobile is lighting its 3G network in New York in voice-only mode, says Gizmodo. Don't ask me why. I cannot figure this out. Maybe the backhaul issues are serious enough that broadband really isn't available yet. If so, don't bother offering commercial service.
The voice network and EDGE data network already work. What conceivable value does a T-Mobile customer get from 3G speeds if all you can do is what you already are doing? Sure, it's just the first city of a national network.
But why not offer some new service that the network actually enables?
