ATT GSM or TMOBILE in the Minneapolis/STpaul area

[alex55406]

Hey,

I would like some advice, I am in the Minneapolis/St Paul Area and have Sprintpcs.I would like to go GSM. I plan to change but i don't know what carrier to choose between Tmobile and ATTgsm. Which one has the best service in the Twin Cities area? Any advice????

well for the time being, T-Mobile is far better. AT&T GSM only covers the immediate twin cities, whereas T-Mo has the better part of the state covered. AT&T's coverage will, no doubt, get bigger, but do you really want to wait that long?

Around here, go with the T if you want GSM.

Is "the T" T-Mobile or AT&T??

T-Mobile.

I have a couple of friends who've had no significant problems on Voicestream/T-Mobile.

Personally, I use Verizon Wireless and AT&T Free2Go (TDMA) as a backup, since they own the 800 MHz licenses around here (inherently superior coverage, IMHO), but the GSM features are nice if you have a use for them.
