T-Mobile is playing smart. Makes me think they played AT&T for the fools that they are.

Considering AT&T might have a similar deal for Lower 700 B and C from Verizon lined up soon?
Only way AT&T is played for fools is if T-Mobile senior management wakes up and makes a grab for 700. I just don't see that. Sad because 700 would really help out T-Mobile in the coverage department.

Fiber backhaul for Verizon in Southern Illinois in 2013 - about time.

But 700 from where? T-Mobile allowed Qualcomm, AT&T, and Verizon to buy the 700Mhz spectrum, that was being sold. Only way, is if someone else has 700MHz and T-Mobile offers them a price.
Wouldn't the lower 700MHz spectrum that AT&T has, be better for reception, compared to Verizon's upper 700 "750" band?
Have yet to see one ounce of proof. I would much rather them invest in expanding their 3G coverage before just going to LTE. That's one of the main reasons I can't use them as a primary provider.

Coming from someone using at&t service , because we know how efficient at&t is....
Yes, they have 0% LTE deployment and 0% LTE coverage. Wow! That's fast!
Even lowly MetroPCS has more LTE coverage than T-mobile does!
Lol because their coverage area is maybe 7 cities? And they made it their goal T-mobile wasn't forced to LTE like sprint verizon and metro because their network can be upgraded and isn't at its limits capacity wise.

Actually Sprint and CDMA carriers could have easily upgraded to EVDO Rev. B which is the speed equivalent of HSPA+

Metros LTE is nothing to brag about at most your looking at 3 to 6mbps down on a good day. LTE doesn't automatically equal fast data speeds or consistency it's how it's set up.
