No 3G for awhile

I heard about the FCC approving (reapproving, whatever) the Samsung t639. Sounds like a TMo model number and it has 3G so you would think that 3G would be coming to TMo relativly soon. But then Moto announces the new Razr models, and what's that? a model without 3G just for TMo?????? Makes me think that we're not going to get 3G until the middle or end of '08. Or maybe not even that soon.
Do they not care about us techy types? Is it still their game plan to go after the cost consious consumers and keep expenses down? How do we really know they are installing 3G on their towers? All that money they paid for that bandwith could just have been an investment into the future, far future.

What gives?

It's according to your city. Major areas will get it first. As for towers, new built-outs are getting 3g cabs in them.

I am one in the one of the earliest bird market: NYC
but this is a capacity consideration, GSM network gets blown, that needs 3G to share the gigantic load here
if you're in NYC/NJ/Westchester/Long Island, watch out Spetember 10, when T639 will be out
