T-Mobile's Q'2 Shows Drop In Subscribers

One man's carrier charm is another's nightmare, if you go by the below.  While there may still be some T-Mobile loyalists out there, looks like that is changing rapidly.  Interesting to note, the 3rd commenter below is actually most happy because of the freedom it gives him/her to use unlocked phones, rather than speed of connection of other services, indicating that its more and more about self-determining: the phone I want under the circumstances I want it in.  But be that as it may, this event is more about signifying how much further ingrained mobile is becoming not only in our society but around the world; and how the future winners of the industry will create staying power by firmly staying in touch with myriad customer needs and anticipating them more quickly.  Another example of individual leading the way in this new era, not the corp.  Can you hear me now?

What Others Are Saying...

I've been a T-Mobile customer for about 8 or 9 years now.  My contract term ended last month and I definitely will not stay...they lack in market inclusion with new devices!

I have T-Mobile and I love it...I can use any unlocked phone I want.  The customer service is second to none...you get to talk to a real American.  I recommend T-Mobile to everyone and anyone that asks!
