T-Mobile HSPA+ network rocks on the Nokia N900
If you are trying to think of another reason to get the new Nokia N900 (my Guide should help), then just feast your eyes on the T-Mobile HSPA+ network testing that Kevin Tofel conducted a couple of days ago. Using the Nokia N900 he was able to experience 7.09 Mbps downloads and 1.15 Mbps uploads and the N900 didn’t melt in his hands. T-Mobile is rolling out their network upgrades and it looks to me like the 7.2 Mbps HSPA network is up in my area where I am regularly seeing something around 2 Mbps download speeds on the N900.
Combine these wireless data speeds with a device like the N900 that has a desktop class Mozilla-based browser and you can really have a killer mobile computing experience. I have been debating with myself about purchasing a N900 in January when I have to say goodbye to this evaluation unit, but it is things like this that confirm it will be mine. I just need to see some more app support, come on Gravity, and then there will be no hesitation.

I am really enjoying the T-Mobile network. I doubt I would have picked up a T-Mobile line without having the contract-free option since my main line is still on AT&T (ugh), but their Everything Plus plan is great. I don’t think we have the higher speeds in the area yet, but it is nice to be on a non-congested 3g network again. It reminds me of the good old days before the iPhone 3G when I was using Windows Mobile…
