However, if the Wing and the Dash become UMA capable, I may cut my plan and go with this anyways. ]]>Jun 27th 2007 2:01AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/Jun 27th 2007 11:39AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/Jun 27th 2007 9:07AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/Jun 27th 2007 9:36AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/Jun 27th 2007 11:39AMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/

DON'T like the fact that customers are paying to NOT use Tmo's network, but hey, at the moment they're the monopoly on this service, so a $10 add on isn't bad.

System should have been tested longer and they should have rolled out tower updates that are needed in most areas for UMA/GSM to handoff. Our location has been 'scheduled for enhancements within 120 days' for almost 2 years so don't let them fool you with promises of such.

Escalate it, but be careful, or you will be threatened by t-mobile managers like I was ( http://tmobile.gravitypark.com for an audio of it), hehe. Come get me t-mobile, and bring a tech to fix my phone when you pay me this visit.]]>Oct 11th 2007 6:42PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/Sep 12th 2007 2:57PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/
Your T-Mobile is fully dependant on a single SPRINT IP address and if that address can not be reached, your UMA is a no go.

Have had the service since July, still busted off. Aside from David Pogue (who hates the ihone) at NYTimes, everyone else has some kind of UMA issue and can not go from UMA to GSM as stated.

Will be a killer app if they get it working, however I am no longer believing they will.

Took 2 days of telling them the trunking system was down in order to get it fixed, lovely support.

http://tmobile.gravitypark.com for a list of my issues and a real audio encoding of a tmobile manager reminding me he has my home address. Such class from a provider. Stick with skype for now, maybe someone else will deliver what t-mobile has promised.]]>Oct 11th 2007 6:38PMhttp://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/http://mobile.engadget.com/2007/06/27/t-mobile-goes-national-with-hotspot-home-wifi-calling/
New question - if I buy another wifi phone on ebay to replace my wife's non-wifi T-mobile phone, will I have any problems just swapping the SIM chip and going to town? If I buy the phone from T-mobile I have to extend my contract 2 years - not going to happpen.
