SGS4 [INSTANT or ELONGATED]

Because they need to make sure gsm or lte is guaranteed to be available in most of the areas that are currently only being served by cdma signals

T-mobile has no LTE. MetroPCS IS "the main LTE network". MetroPCS is 100% of the LTE network. :p
So there is no LTE overlap, and they aren't shutting down any LTE.

T-Mobile actually has a lot of sites up they've been adding them since the refarming in November last year they're just not available for the public to use yet they'll probably be announcing the 1st couple markets (NYC, San Diego, Las Vegas & Kansas City etc.) when they change plans on 3/27 and also release the LTE GS3 shortly after. Its supposed to be 100mill pops covered by summer then 200mill pops by the end of the year.

They'll be shutting down metro's LTE network as they go along and start overlapping. T-Mobile LTE equipment is much better anyways its release 10 vs metros release 8 equipment. (Release 10 is LTE Advanced)
^^^This isn't even speculation T-Mobile said it in a press release
 
It appears I have been bested. I shall stand down good sir :boxing:

(I'm still sticking to my wager though :p)
 
 
Hmmmm, interesting conversation here & on the other thread. Love my metro s3, but wouldn't mind having the note2 on tmo also. something else I haven't seen mentioned yet. "IF" I wanted to go to tmo now, or when their lte starts up, would they accept my metro s3, or do I have to get a new one?

Since launch day has already happened, I think that would make the answer,

No.

No launch in the US yet. I think T-Mobile does there's on May 1st and AT&T hasnt announced the release date yet only that preorders start April 16th.
 
Think I'll get my gs3 on Monday run it for a year and upgrade just in case of any dumb bugs it may have

No dumb bugs for me here and I've had it for about 4 and a half months now.

Or are you waiting to see if the S4 has any dumb bugs? Might've misunderstood.
 
I'm literally trying to look for a reason not to wait for the S4 since I could get an S3 way earlier than having to wait for the S4
 
Yeah I was meaning bugs on the gs4 I had the lg esteem from day one and 4 updates the bug was finally gone but took months to fix
 
the sgs3 has had 2 updates so far, one was to fix a gps issue i dont think anyone even knew about. and teh second was our 4.1.2 update :)
 
I figure how people say the gs3 is kinda flimsy it may make a year or so and gs4 for me and my son can have my old gs3
 
The s4 does have some cool features but not enough for me to dump my s3, especially with the custom rom I have on it.
