3G in St louis When?

Jason on the blog side said that it's now beginning in STL on 11 Aug.  If you get to the store again reuther ask about that phase II timeline I was told about.  I just can't see them launching inside 270 when the majority live outside of the 270 loop and also in IL, makes no sense.  Of course, it could be that most of their customers are inside the 270 loop and the suburbanites are on AT&T or Verizon. 

well no 3g in the lou today 

Well, the unofficial confirmed dates are 11 to 21 Aug so we'll see what happens.  If they have anymore outside work to do now is the time as the next few days look warm but much less humid with no rain forecast.  Sure wish they'd hop the metro and find their way to Belleville but they may be worried about getting lost in East St Louis on the way over to turn on the metro east 3G.  Counting the days when I can get 3G on a carrier that recognizes this market (the other 3).

Woo hoo!  3G in st louis, north county as of 12am aug 12th, 2009!! Finally...

3G is awesome but although its off topic I just uploaded a 24MB video to youtube using my G1. Sam seems like you want 3g and now but there is a lot of things that can delay a site also speaking as a newly 3G power user I gotta say the speeds are great and its equal to Road Runner Lite.

Yay 3g! Samdan,  what's your status

Congrats reuther and STL, unfortunately T-Mobile doesn't think those of us across the river need 3G.   I will have to change my sig and work on getting my ETF waived.  Enjoy the connectivity!

They're working on it just be patient Sam you will get it trust me if my little town got it then your going to get it but what's location I'll get someone to look into if they can.

Land, location is Shiloh IL on the east side of Belleville IL, zip code 62221.

There is bleed over from STL about 8-10 miles into IL but very weak, a guy who works for me had a weak 3G signal on his wife's G1 this morning.  He's switching when his contract is up also, says the network just isn't strong enough for his needs.

3g data is down in st louis, mo this morning. Anyone else having issues with data?

How's your 3G been reuther, excluding the current outage of course.  Any insight on Project Dark?

It seems the outage was just my device acting up. That said, not much insight on Project Dark.

Hi everyone!  I hate to resurrect an old thread, but I'm new here so here goes.

I live in St. Charles, MO, just outside of the 270 loop.  When I'm in St. Charles, my data switches from 3g to EDGE constantly, so I assume I'm on the edge of the 3g area here.  I read in this thread that 3g is mostly inside of the 270 loop. 

I work further west in Wentzville, MO.  I spend alot of my time on the internet at work, and can only get EDGE speeds.  I was wondering if anyone had information on when/if they plan on broadening their 3g area further west.

I recently switched to T-Mo from Big Red so I could get the Nexus One.  I'm really starting to regret my decision, as coverage has been extremely spotty.

Chances are pretty likely that they're going to be expanding coverage again when they roll out HSPA+ to the area. There are a lot of people who live between Wentzville, O Fallon and Saint Charles.

I would actually advise you to give 611 a call every now and then to tell them that you're not satisfied with your 3g coverage. It'll make sure they know that there are people out there who would like more 3g in the area.

Thank you for the freindly, Reuthermonkey.  I'm calling 611 now.

EDGE is fine for now, I just hope they upgrade to 3G in time for Flash to be released on Android.  I can't imagine Flash will work so great on EDGE speeds.

Speeds are under 1 mbps here in St Louis. When is HSPA+ supposed to get here? NY has had 2-3 mbps for months.

T-Mobile plans on offering HSPA+ to 100 metro areas by the end of 2010, just hope you're in one of those areas.
