Default T-Mobile Coverage

Does anyone know of T-Mobile plans to expand cell coverage in the near future?

I love this phone, but I get almost no service at home, and only edge in town. I am approaching the end of my 14 day trial and need to make a decision soon. If they are planning on expanding in the near future, I will probably stick it out.

ummmm. I did the obvious things, and got the obvious answers. I just thought maybe someone here could give some insight to the situation. T-Mobile engineers are working on a service request now, have been for several days.

The coverage map, as you probably know, only shows existing coverage.

They are expanding 3g coverage in existing markets, but I have not heard anything about voice.

Well I finally spoke to T-Mobile again. My area has been flagged for needing service improvements. It should be completed in 120 days.

I don't want to return my phone, but I need service at home.

Is anyone working on a true voip solution?

I would probably just go with a Blackberry Curve for right now, since you dont have coverage at home. Get the Unlimited Hotspot calling, and you will be able to have coverage at home, too (assuming you have wifi at home).
