T-Mobile Amps Their "4G" Network To 42Mbps in 56 New Regions, Still Has No 42Mbps-Compatible Phones
Oh man! I just realized: we've had this new layout for a whole day now, and we have yet to do one of our kind-of-but-not-really-trademark Good News, Bad News posts.You know what that means? IT'S INAUGURAL GOOD NEWS, BAD NEWS TIME.The Good News: T-Mobile is doubling the speeds of their high-speed data network in 56 new regions, bumping things from a theoretical max of 21 Megabits per second to a theoretical max of 42 Megabits per second. You can find a full list of the new, super-speedy regions down below. All in all, this upgrade brings the number of regions running on T-Mobile's HSPA+42 network up to 152.The Bad News: They, uh, don't actually have any phones compatible with this new, snappier network yet. While T-Mobile plans to launch a HSPA+42 compatible phone by the end of this year, all of the "4G" phones they've sold to date can only run on the 21 megabit pipe. They do have a 42Mbps-friendly USB laptop dongle called the Rocket, but hey " this isn't TechCrunch.com/LaptopDongles.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/rirhTM2OEzw/
