Pros: Almost as good as Verizon but without Verizons Usage Games or Price Gouging.
Cons: Roaming - Does Verizon Block This On Their Network Too?

| wm08003's Full Review: T-Mobile Phone Service in Philadelphia |
T-Mobile started as the choice of phones for college students because of price. As the T-Mobile network improved, now completing a 3G upgrade, their service almost rivals Verizon.
T-Mobile gives good roaming, but I’ve noticed that Verizon can use T-Mobile towers, but T-Mobile seems to be blocked from Verizon towers. Is Verizon blocking its competitors? I don’t doubt this as Verizon does things to nickel and dime its customers such as Bluetooth. Only Verizon blocks all Bluetooth except for the earpiece. This may not sound like a big deal, but when you have to buy all of your content from Verizon, it is! I bought a $10 Bluetooth adapter for my PC and can send images, ring tones and songs directly to and from my phones. I also can send phone-to-phone. With Verizon, you have to pay for everything, forget the phone-to-phone thing!
The price structure of T-Mobile is as flexible as possible. I have the family plan with 5 phones, 1000 shared minutes, unlimited text messaging and those dial-up songs that the kids want. The total monthly cost is $140.
If you have a family, then T-Mobile is the way to go!
