Edge sucks when you're using maps, or looking for directions. The map doesn't load, and it always says Data connection lost, retrying.

That, or the browser takes 10 years, and sometimes doesn't load at all.

Well I live here in Las Vegas and going thru AT&T with my N1. I know I dont get 3G but the Edge is very quite fast.

No probs using Maps/Navigation. Now as for the Web pages.. that all depends on how graphic the webpage your going to is.. some can take a while and other are real fast.. also too of course if the website you go to dosent have a mobile version (which really loads fast) or the full blown version (which can take some time). Have not yet had a drop call.

Only reason going thru AT&T is that was the only place that had a Phone that my wife liked. So she is stuck at a 2 year conrtact.. as for me.. if I dont like AT&T (will gove it a few months) I can alwasy go and try Tmo.

So far really have not found anyone else here (forum wise) that has a N1 thru Tmo so cant really tell ya what the experience thru them is here in Vegas.

Nah it's a 3G tower. Been asking t-mo about it, and it shows on their coverage map.

Other t-mo phone next to it I have full 3g.

It's my only gripe about the phone, once that gets fixed, it will be flawless in my book.

I'm sending mine back for repair and also fear I get it back in the same state. I'm losing like -15dBm to -25dBm. Enough to loose 3G signal and EDGE most times.

it's not a dud, the building may be interfering. i'm in nyc and in my apt, i dont get 3g, but everywhere else i do get 3g. my apt is surrounded by high rises, so all the concrete and steel interfere. add that to tmobile's spotty service, it's not a defective phone

I agree with you. In my apt I get 3 bars 3G. Holding it though cause it to drop to EDGE or no signal if set to 3G only. Why won't tmobile listen to their customers.
