Midwest T-Mo markets now with EDGE

[PlainShane]

Those of us in Wichita, KS just got it a day ago and Oklahoma City is soon to follow. No more 850mhz EDGE, 1900 baby! This brings up a whole new opprotunity for us that enjoy 1900 euro phones but need edge. Too bad the SE K750i doesn't support it, but I'll be ready for the Nokia N70 and 6280.

Is this official? Do you have a press release of some sort? This is quite exciting news...:D:D:D

Well it was rumored that on the 1st of August it might come true, and reportedly someone else from Wichita (at howardforums) said their EDGE icon started lighting up on and off on the 29th of July and now it is pretty much always on.

What phone do they have? Do you think you could link me to the thread?

I like that about HowardForums...that they've got this HUGE T-Mobile group there. It just seems so massive though that it doesn't feel welcoming :o

edge is tower software so it will work either 1900 or 850. i have heard this as well.
