   There's a hefty upgrade in process at T-Mobile now that   
   they've gotten the 600 mhz bandwidth.   
      
   I know, for example, that an area I frequent - which didn't   
   have any TM coverage, is in the process of getting towrs   
   with 600 mhz cell sites. There's even a brand new TM   
   franchise store that'll be opening in that area in   
   about a month...   
      
   The good news is that their footprint will be expanding   
   (which, of course, will take time...). The bad news is   
   that older phones, and many current ones... won't work   
   on those frequencies.   
      
   So keep an eye out for bigger and better maps
