Help about the network mode

I am just wondering, in your guys settings, wireless & network, in mobile networks under network mode, did it just say GSM only, WCDMA only, GSM & WCDMA only? is there no HSPA? or HSDPA?? Because before, I had the same choices on desire but it does not run of tmobile's 3g network because i think the frequency is different. But on sensation it is 900/AWS/2100 so it should run it, but why is the network mode same?
 
HSDPA is part of WCDMA which is why you don't see a separate entry for it. Other networks might use the same technology but different frequencies, so one carrier's GSM or WCDMA won't necessarily work on another carrier's GSM and WCDMA...
