Why is it a surprise that they're releasing mid-range wifi handsets? They're network sucks, so what better way to "build it out" quickly and at the customers' expense? Why, HotSpot@Home, of course. I've all but decided that I'm going with the new 3G iPhone when it hits, and I can't wait to flip T-Mobile the big bird on my way out. I've spent a good deal of time talking to various ("award winning") support folks trying to get them to check the coverage in my hood (which they say "looks great on our coverage map" ... EFF your coverage map), and trying to see why I keep missing calls and text messages. That's all been useless, so I'll be glad to jump that sinking ship.

Yep, I'm ditching T-Mobile soon as that 3G iPhone comes out too, I'm so sick of T-Mobile's craptastic phones.

Ever thought of getting your phone checked out?
