  1. Already mentioned http://www.s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/6319-Marcelo-Claure,-Town-Hall-Meetings,-New-Family-Share-Pack-Plan,-Unlimited-Individual-Plan,-Discussion-Thread&do=findComment&comment=461928
  2. I think you got a little mixed up here. The correct statement is "Set B contains all of the values of set A while Set A does not contain all of the values of Set B. Thus Set B is the superset of Set A"
  3. They do. See: https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/3smuvk/20x20mhz_lte_live_in_new_york_city/
  4. According to Root they don't even test VoLTE yet. I'll try to find the tweet they made about it. In other news, T-Mobile is really talking up BingeOn as innovative. See comments at UBS https://np.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/3vxqs5/braxton_carter_cfo_mike_sievert_coo_neville_ray/ EDIT: Here's the tweet: https://twitter.com/rootmetrics/status/649734293023920128
  5. Wonder what Marcelo is doing in DC https://twitter.com/marceloclaure/status/674039714589106177
  6. Wouldya look at that, Fabian loves lurking here http://np.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/3vu4fi/tmobile_the_first_ltefirst_network/cxquzmd Hi Fabian! [emoji112]
  7. I fully expect T-Mobile to reduce GSM sooner than later. I bet they'll eventually do what AT&T did in NYC and move GSM carriers into guard bands until it's feasible to completely shut it down.
  8. Magentians still in fantasy land https://np.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/3vu4fi/tmobile_the_first_ltefirst_network/
  9. I flew in to Ontario with my parents last year for New Years and it couldn't have been easier. Airport wasn't busy at all flying in and the same when we left.
  10. Everything is not peachy in magenta land. Stock is down 17% since Q3 earnings and there are concerns over high SG&A costs. http://news.investors.com/120415-783791-tmobile-stock-slides-as-acquisition-speculation-dims.htm
  11. Which unfortunately is delayed even further by the MB/MC issue.
  12. See: http://www.rcrwireless.com/20151201/network-infrastructure/new-york-prepares-for-surge-in-small-cell-deployments-tag4
  13. Ouch, that hurts. Their most dense market with 20x20 and they still decreased in speed.
  14. Charter does the same thing for free. They have an app that you can use in home to watch all available broadcast TV stations. Outside of the home you have limited access to stations based on their agreements. Charter doesn't have data caps on their internet services, so that isn't an issue like it is with Comcast
  15. The internet has had some form of portals for a long time. There's nothing inherently wrong with portals on the internet. YouTube is a free and open content portal with moentization features, is there something wrong with that? At its core, a web portal is just a site that aggregates content from numerous sources in to an easily accessible site. The internet will continue to be free and open as it is today unless ISPs start mucking about. The FCC passing net neutrality rules is a key step in keeping the internet free and open and preventing this from happening. There is nothing inherently wrong with businesses using the internet to make money or curate content so long as the average Joe can continue to run his own website. The beauty of the internet is that everyone, from big corporations to individuals, is free to create their own websites and services.
  16. Gonna have to disagree with your assessment here Robert. Amazon Underground is free and open to any developer who submits their app, providing that the follow the guidelines. This is not too unlike Google Play, which has its own set of guidelines that developers have to abide by in order to remain listed. By your assessment, Google Play is a "walled garden," when in reality it's an open platform for listing applications. Apple's App Store is arguably a worse offender since Apple reviews applications before they are even listed at all and can outright deny listing on the app store. In Apple's walled garden approach they haven't been picking winners and losers as there are many apps which provide similar functionality. It's not "picking winners and losers" unless Amazon starts to decline listing of apps that compete with Amazon's own services, or declining apps based on there already being an app of similar functionality listed. If that starts happening (like they have already done with refusing to sell Chromecast), then there's a problem. Until then I see no issue with Amazon Underground. Users get "free" apps and developers get more ways to monetize. There's obviously still a price to be paid for the "free" apps in the form of extra tracking and analytics, but that's a different can of worms.
  17. T-Mobile changed their incoming LEC to one that charges double or more for calls and shut down their free SIP service. Gotta pay for the network anyway they can... https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/3v4p37/tmobile_traffic_pumping_costing_callers_of/ Edit: Looks like it is a new account, so probably good to be a little cautious with the truthfulness until he can provide a source.
  18. I'm pretty sure Ookla picks a server primarily based on ping, but other factors such as server load should play in to selection as well.
  19. Some insight into the scale of Sprint's small cell deployment plans was published in an article on RCR Wireless today http://www.rcrwireless.com/20151201/network-infrastructure/new-york-prepares-for-surge-in-small-cell-deployments-tag4
  20. I haven't had much issue with roaming on Verizon. Just earlier in November I was roaming on Verizon in Southern Ohio with EVDO and it worked quite well.
  21. RootMetrics only tests the native networks. Roaming does not play in to their rankings.
