Everyone saying that T-Mobile has strong coverage, I'm happy for you, but T-Mobile reception in my area while I was with the company was terrible to say the least In Southern California (Long Beach) T-Mobile is more than a joke, and I wouldn't switch back to the carrier unless some major improvements are made to the network. I got more than tired of waiting Sooo, the Nexus One looks like an amazing phone, but I'll be just fine with my Droid... a great phone that actually works reliably I have been with T-mobile for a good 3 years, and have only just recently left the carrier to the big red.

At that time (March) they will turn on the 7.2 mbps service making them the fastest and equalling (if not surpassing) the nation's largest gsm 3g carrier. Never before has a carrier built a system so quickly and solidly (thank you DT). The next phase will take 7 months to initiate their 21 hsdpa service and THEN let's see the "maps war" !!!

I don't want to find myself stuck in the middle of NYC and not be able to get coverage. jer: “TMO didn’t have 3G coverage up until September, but now they do and honestly there’s not many times where it matters that much outside a few apps.”

Does the unlocked version work on other carriers? Or does it only work on T-Mobile's network? If so why what are the reasons for buying an unlocked phone for $350 more? Ok I am confused.

If so why what are the reasons for buying an unlocked phone for $350 more?

Oh yeah, huge failures . . . They are. They have sold a miniscule amount of volume compared to if they were on a larger carrier. That was apprpropriate for the G1 as Google needed to test the waters in a low profile way. Putting the G1 on TM was a good idea. Putting a phone they want to compete with iphone on TM Only; really bad idea. If Google is serious about this phone, it will work on 3G of other carriers. @Matt W…Ever heard of the G1 or myTouch 3G?

I switched from the big red simply to get the first Android phone knowing they'd eventually be available on Verizon, as an early adopter. TMO didn't have 3G coverage up until September, but now they do and honestly there's not many times where it matters that much outside a few apps. With that said I know there are so many other areas that are/were in the same boat with TMO 3G just arriving recently or about to. They've done a really good job, considering we didn't even have TMO in this state barely over a year ago. Since being with them I have only great things to report. They're customer service FAR trumps any carrier I've been with (all of the others), I've experienced only a handful of times where signal was lost and I'm more than happy to pay almost HALF what I would for the same plan on big red. Oh and: "Most people won’t switch and lose coverage just for this phone." As others are saying, there will be other phones in 2010 as well, and... Ask anyone that switched to AT&T for the iphone. Loads of people are more than willing to gamble the carrier for a handset. @ari-free and other TMO doubters.

They have no coverage and no customers. Google cant be this stupid. The phone must be available at 3G with other carriers, or its a failure out of the gate.
