@Duke:

It's not T-Mobile, it's RIM. None of the 8XXX series BB's have 3G support - for ANY network. Besides, T-Mobile doesn't exactly have a full 3G network deployment yet anyway. Although, I just got this phone today and I must say the WiFi radio makes me not even care about the lack of 3G. I love this thing! The HotSpot at home is F**Kin' sweet! I was skeptical at first, but the clarity is amazing. I'm pleasantly surprised at how well TMO has pulled this off.

Actually, I take that back -

By technicality, Verizon and Sprint's BlackBerry devices have 3G, but that's of an EVDO flavor. What I meant was all of the GSM BB 8XXX series devices do not have 3G support (yes, even the European BB 8XXX's are without it).
