The iPhone's Role In Crippling T-Mobile 325
GMGruman writes "The feds may be blocking AT&T's buyout of T-Mobile, but T-Mobile is in poor shape to continue as is. Parent company Deutsche Telekom's decision not to invest in U.S. spectrum a decade ago constrained T-Mobile's ability to grow, especially through 4G networks now finally emerging. But from a customer point of view, it was the iPhone that has threatened the company the most. Or, more precisely, its lack of the iPhone."
Why I left T-Mobile (Score:5, Funny)
I left T-Mobile because their network didn't cover all the areas I needed cell reception in. That's it. T-Mobile's network in the Pacific Northwest is better than Sprint's, but when you get away from the interstates (especially east of the Cascades) there are huge gaps.
Now, when I originally left Verizon and switched to T-Mobile... that was because Verizon was evil. Verizon had coverage everywhere, but their fundamental evil-tude overrode that.

Let's just face facts, we like the side we're on and we like antagonizing the other side. There really is no real substance here outside of that.
I have an Apple tablet and an Android phone.
And I have to warn you - all that antagonizing myself hurts. Stick to a single vendor for the sake of your mental health! ~
