But for data they aren't so hot.

Actually email is better experience with SK2, also has the biggest keyboard and screen on the market, also has AIM and Yahoo, everything is very intuitive, Blackberry is a joke, look at that thing.

uMM, dude part of the reason my company switched is because of T-Mobil'es data. Verizion has the best and fastest data on their devices. Plus they have V-cast. You can watch TV etc etc. T-Mobile is kind of at a standstill with there data devices. The only ones they offer now are the Sidekick and the Blackberry. Plus there are rumors T-Mobile might be up for sale soon.

But with the sidekick you have to manually check your email. The blackberry has a push system where you program it in and it comes like a text message. Much easier if you ask me. Im not dissing the sidekick, but the blackberry is a lot more professional. No thanks to snoop and Paris Hilton <img src="/~stretch/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Between GPRS and CDMA? If you did you wouldnt make the statement that Verizon data services are better. You are aware that Cingular uses GPRS/GSM technology too right?
Up for sale? Dude lol. Do you know who Deutshe Telecom is in the European market? They have like the 2nd most subs in the world for wireless services. Deutshe Telecom is T-mobile, I highly doubt they'd push into the US market then sell off the infrastructure they've built especially with the success of the Sidekick and some of the best consumer rates available.

Sidekick email is Push email bro, additionally you can set up 3 seperate POP accounts on the device, which pop every 15 min or you can manually fetch mail when you want. But standard @tmail is push. The blackberry might appeal to someone who needs VPN access, but overall the blackberry is a joke in every sense, look at that pos, it looks like a pack of baseball cards. Also the Kick is just so much more fun to use and cool looking.

i use sprint... sprint just fucking blows.. =-/

i thought T-Mobile leased their network from Verizon? Is that incorrect? Your post ;leads me to believe they are building their own infrastructure.

Because they use the same technology, but T-mobile has been building up their own infrastrcuture over the past few years getting ready for Edge technology.
Verizon uses CDMA
Tmobile/Cingular use GPRS/GSM
They are not compatibile.

Yes, obviously I know who Deushe Telecomm is. As far as data goes from what I hear, Verizion's is faster and offers more features.
