    It works on their network, just not on 3G.

    It's also possible that T-Mobile will be selling a mofi device for this as Sprint does.

    This could also mean that Apple is trying to get T-mumble to sell this inventory for them so T-Mumble can start selling the old, Nokia handsets - probably 5-10 million of them before Nokia buys T-Mumble!!! So T-Mumble is becoming kinda like the e-bay of old telephony tech...hummm... warehouse prices for old parts with rust!! Come get a thousand today!!!



    Looks like T-MUMBLE is about to crater.



    AT&T is the one with the network that sounds like mumbling. T-Mobile here in denver, when I had my iphone on it for a short time (but the battery life issues with the unlock turned me back), had far better call clarity than AT&T. Enough that I could hear the difference, and people i talked to could hear how much clearer I sounded.

    That is only true for the faster network. 3G doesn't work on the iPhone on T-Mobile, but the slower network works fine. Or if you are like me, I have no data plan and rely strictly on Wi-Fi.

    Thanks for clearing things up. For me at least.

    Leftovers/production over-run of cables destined for the European market?





    T-Mobile in Germany was Apple's preferred partner when iPhone launched there.

    HSPA+ iPhone 5 anyone?

    If it is for an iPhone, it's not for the iPhone 4. The plastic around the actual connector is too wide and won't work with the iPhone 4's bumper case on. It looks similar the Monoprice cables which similarly don't work with the iPhone 4's bumper case.
