This would be a more attractive offer if LTE tablets were not so often weeks, even months behind their Wi-Fi counterparts.  Many of us have long had the Wi-Fi version by the time the LTE version is released.

After looking at Tmobile's coverage map, it looks way better than Sprint's crappy coverage map that looks so primitive like it was made by a 15 year old.  Sprint really needs to hire someone who can revamp the coverage map badly.  What bugs me the most about the Sprint coverage map is that you are limited to that tiny square box that they provide as if you can see anything.  We should be able to maximize it to at least 80% of your screen.  There is no reason why the coverage maps should not take up a lot of the screen.

 

 

That has long been one of those things that absolutely drives me nuts about Sprint.

 

The problem is that it is intentional.

 

Sprint doesn't want an easy way for their competition to send people to Sprint's OWN page to see just how horrid the coverage actually is.

 

Maybe if they manage to implement the network upgrade and get some coverage they will start to make the map worth using.

 

For now, I'll stick with Sensorly.

This.

 

Main reason why I don't have the LTE Nexus 7.

I'd have to pay for personal hotspot, this is free.  By the way , it auto-renewed itself, and still working great. I haven't paid them a penny and they don't even have my CC info. 

 

Just to make it clear to us all, do they or do they not have your credit card info?

Yes, I have this deal too. I am mostly on WiFi, and also have a Zing, so I only use about half of that 200MB in a typical month. My other inspiration was curiosity, to see the level of TMo coverage in the areas I frequent. It is always nice to have first-hand experience over coverage maps and hearsay.

    • Tbh not that surprising. Every ISP seems to want to have an MVNO to pitch to their customers to make them stickier and maybe make some money in the process. And unlike USCC the MVNO should be able to cover TDS's entire wireline area, with infrastructure costs that are borne by someone else. Entertaining, yes. Surprising, not really...particularly when competing against Comcast or Spectrum, or even eventually T-Mobile fixed + mobile. This also strengthens my bet that they'll rebrand all their fixed wireless stuff as TDS, as that runs on spectrum they're keeping for now.
    • No? RCS on Google messages works great for me, messages between anyone with RCS enabled go through with no problems. Don't remember the last time I had an issue. I only have issues with people on iPhones on different carriers from T-Mobile.
    • Has anyone experienced a ridiculous amount of difficulty with Google messages with RCS enabled?  It has been a train wreck for me for the past year so I now use WhatsApp.  That works very well for all of us.... Android and iOS.  
    • Probably not worth the fiddling given that that's a few percent of the band. Also, if they really wanted to push my assumption is there are still guard bands in play for the n41 carriers so they could fit two "100 MHz" carriers into 194 MHz anyway. Looks like minimum guard band is less than 1 MHz and a 100 MHz channel is only 273 30 KHz resource blocks, which is a bit over 80 MHz total, so if they really wanted to pull another 5% or so capacity out they could.
    • Saw that for a while. Now back to n25 + n71 + n41-100Mhz + n41-90Mhz.
