Hi Hedy! I didn’t know Sprint works too. Hmmm. It has a better monthly service plan than Verizon, too …

proudgeek, Spring, too can be worked underground in the metro system.

I wait too. :-)

When it comes onto Verizon I’ll get it.

PassingThru – good question, I don’t know if the T-Mobile G1 would be “hackable” and thus be used on another network. Hmmm.

Vadim – hi! Where I live, only Verizon works underground in our Metro system (and even so, pretty much only intermittently). Elsewhere in the metro DC area and in much of the USA, Verizon has pretty much stellar coverage. I’m not too crazy about T-Mobile’s coverage.

That said, I can be convinced … :-)

But I am bummed that this smart-phone does not offer video recording!

Why are we concerned about T-Mobile? ;-) Living in San Francisco Bay Area, I have no problem with T-Mobile coverage or the service. (I have to say all phone companies including AT&T do not have great customer service, but T-Mobile is not that bad compared to AT&T)

I am so thrilled that there is something better than iPhone that is just a “UI” gimmick with great audio services. ;-)

Someone said on Engadget that it should be able to roam on AT&T 3G network. (??? I don’t know anything about it all and I only looked at Engadget for the pictures at this time and noticed that comment about ATT roaming).
