T-Mobile widens 4G HSPA+ network in direct bid for iPhone customers
By Mikey Campbell November 07, 2012
T-Mobile on Wednesday announced that it had activated 4G HSPA+ data networks in three new metropolitan areas, taking direct aim at Apple's U.S. carrier partners by noting customers with unlocked iPhones can enjoy quick data speeds an pay less by switching providers.
The announcement was posted on the fourth-largest U.S. carrier's blog by Chief Technology Officer Neville Ray, who said the iPhone-compatible HSPA+ service on the 1900 MHz band was being rolled out in parts of Washington, D.C., Baltimore, and Houston. Currently, T-Mobile does not officially carry the iPhone and can only support unlocked versions of the handset.
