Can anyone else who has T-Mobile and an EDGE capable phone check and see if they're getting EDGE coverage for data? My Blackberry has always had EDGE in Rolla, but today I noticed that now it's on the GPRS network which means slower data transfer speeds. Before I call T-Mobile and see what's going on, I just wanted to see if anyone else is having trouble or if something's wrong with my phone. Thanks.

maybe you should switch to america's most reliable network

I'm more than happy with T-Mobile

The EDGE outage isn't a huge deal, and I can still browse the internet (at slower speeds), and of course, I can still make phone calls. Whereas with other companies and their crap networks, my phone's just a paperweight.

Oddly enough, i tried to make a call this morning on my phone (not one of those fancy smart phones or anything) and it said forbidden or something. I turned off and on my phone and it worked. This is on the T-Mobile network. I dont know if its at all related but i figured it was worth mentioning.

I reset my phone to no avail, I'm going to call customer service right now and see whats up.

For anyone else who cares...T-Mobile said they'll have a tech out here within a couple days to look at the towers and see what the deal is.

turns out, no one cares

I kinda figured that
