Back in April, RIM announced the new version of its Blackberry Peal. The new Blackberry 9100 is an upgrade of the 8100, featuring WiFi b/g/n, GPS, and for the first time , a Pearl with 3G bands. There are 2 version, one compatible with AT&T bands and one with AWS (1700/2100) used by T-Mobile and Cincinnati Bell.
Well now, seams neither AT&T or T-Mobile were the first American carrier offering the Pearl 9100. Cincinnati Bell started to offer the new Blackberry Pearl 3G in the USA, for 99.99 with 2 years commitment. According with the Road Map leaked few weeks ago, RIM will launch a new phone by September, maybe the Pearl 3G or the new Curve 9300. We just hope this beauty will land soon on T-Mobile’s line up.

Sprint Nextel, the first U.S. carrier to roll out a 4G network, is considering changing its 4G strategy in a way that could encourage a merger with T-Mobile, according to a July 12 report from the Financial Times.
According to Technology Business Research Analyst Ken Hyers, the rollout of an LTE network would be in keeping with statements Clearwire has made — and would prevent Sprint from being isolated in its technology choice as Verizon and AT&T’s 4G networks go live.

T-Mobile just recently announced its new WebConnect Rocket USB Modem capable to reach speeds up to 21Mbps while Sprint already offers WiMax service for quite a while. PCWorld has compared both services in mayor cities like Las Vegas and Philadelphia.
About the WebConnect Rocket : T-Mobile’s first HSPA+ modem is even faster than the WiMAX devices we tested. But T-Mobile needs to provide a clear picture of their service plans and network buildout before we jump on board.
About Sprint Modem : If you’re connecting with Sprint, there’s no reason to get a 3G-only modem any more. Step up to a 3G/WiMAX combo with the U301—just don’t expect too much of WiMAX.
Check the full comparison here.
