Grand Rapids (MI) residents: Do you feel something in the air? If so (and even if not) that new sense of “something newness” is due to the new 1700MHz band of 3G that is pulsating through your town’s buildings, vegetation, and human bodies. Woot! There’s nothing like the feeling of the wind in your hair and the blinding sense that 3G speeds bring to your mobile device.
With each new city that is graced with T-Mo’s 3G goodness I find myself curious as to real world speeds. We all know what 3G is supposed to operate at but often times life has other plans. So do a quick test, take a screenshot, and leave it in the comments below. I’d much appreciate it.
**Word is that Tulsa, Oklahoma was also seeing 3G speeds today however as of writing it seems to have been a false alarm (IntoMobile). Still, your time is due before the end of the year. Your wait — if it is in fact still a “wait” — isn’t much longer.
