[chayz]

I'm sitting in my office in Culver City CA, and just noticed a big fat U where my G was on my HTC TyTn!!! Will see how long it lasts....

Just Got a word............

Charlotte - End Of August

Greensboro-October

These Dates are comfirmed and as of right now a set launch date.

However, they may get delayed

I wish somebody knew when they'd launch north of SF and Sacramento!

[matt110]

Sacramento is in testing phase, no ETA

[ilvla2]

How about north of of SF, into Marin, Napa and Sonoma Counties? Or north of Sacramento, into Colusa, Glenn, Tehama, Shasta, Butte, Sutter and Yuba Counties? I'm in Redwood Valley in Mendocino County, about 115 miles north of SF, and we're served by Cingular's Affiliate, Edge Wireless, and Edge is working on deploying UMTS/HSDPA in their markets (N.CA, S.OR, SE ID, W.WY). I am pretty sure they are testing it here, though I have no UMTS phone to find out

Edit-Cities in those Cingular areas I mentioned are San Rafael, Novato, Larkspur, Petaluma, Rohnert Park, Santa Rosa, Windsor, Healdsburg, Cloverdale, Williams, Williows, Corning, Cottonwood, Anderson, Red Bluff, Redding, Chico, Oroville, Gridley, Live Oak, Marysville, Yuba City and Colusa.

How long does testing take? And who can take part in testing, only cingular people,
Or any one wit a 3g fone.

Good to know that I may be able to get a 3G device before my contract is up.

I'd love to get one too, if they'd actually get it out of the major metro areas

In my case... they actually have to get into the major metro areas

[ilvla2]

Lol true! I guess with WiFi it's not as big of a deal as it used to be though, I have free WiFi at all of the hotels (Best Western, Holiday Inn Express, Comfort Inn, etc) I stay it, and that's even in small towns like Yreka and Weaverville. We travel all over rural NorCal, in fact, we just got back from 3 day/2 night business trip to Yreka and Redding this evening, and we had 802.11G WiFi in both places, very cool! I expect Edge Wireless (who is working on deploying UMTS in their areas) to get 3G out before Cingular, Verizon or T-Mobile ever do outside of Sac or SF.

when will Hawaii get some 3G aloha?!?

Any word on 3G service in Indiana... namely Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, and South Bend?

It isn't turned on yet, and I am 100% positive on that. I passed through Bridgeport last week, and no 3G icon to be seen. There still working on the sites in CT, and the switch should be flipped on in October.
