Apparently that can change in mid-October. Both TMoNews along with the Verge have tracked down information suggesting T-Mobile will begin selling the nano-SIM in mid-October. TMoNews got its hands on internal T-Mobile SIM materials that show that nano-card will likely be available mid-next month, and The Verge spotted a tweet from T-Mobile customer satisfaction stating T-Mobile is “looking from getting them mid October. ”
This can be hardly a surprise since T-Mobile continues to be actively luring iPhone owners off makes over to its network where they will wallow in the carrier’s infinite and cheap big-bucket data ideas. The big catch is that in many of T-Mobile’s footprint customers may only access 2G speeds for the iPhone. Gobs of cheap data aren’t much use if you possibly could only download them at sub-dial-up rates.
But that’s changing, and rapidly. T-Mobile is overhauling its networks, aligning them with the 3G and 4G radios embedded in the iPhone and most other United states GSM devices. iPhone customers can already gain access to its HSPA+ network in New york, Las Vegas and Seattle, and T-Mobile CTO Neville Ray has said the carrier could have a “material” footprint of HSPA+ in iPhone friendly bands from the end of the year. (Ray will share more details on T-Mobile’s network transformation from GigaOM’s Mobilize conference next week).
In the second half of 2013, T-Mobile’s LTE network will likely be online, giving it full compatibility tough iPhone’s radios. So if you can’t hang on until T-Mobile officially lands the iPhone distribution deal and are likely to shell out the hefty price a great unlocked device, we suggest you get the AT&T/North American version of the device. It’s the iPhone which will be exactly where T-Mobile’s networks are usually in 2013.
