T-Mobile USA testing iPhone-compatible 4G HSPA+ service at Moscone West

Jun 08, 2012 - 05:30 PM EDT ? AAPL: 580.32 (+8.60, +1.5%) | NASDAQ: 2858.42 (+27.40, +0.97%)

?Yesterday, 9to5Mac reported that an iPhone user running on T-Mobile?s network had observed the curious phenomenon of 3G connectivity showing up on his device when in the immediate vicinity of the Moscone West convention center where Apple is holding its Worldwide Developers Conference next week,? Eric Slivka reports for MacRumors. ?In response to the observation of 1900 MHz 3G service showing up specifically at Moscone West to beef up service for its users and speculation that Apple could make some sort of announcement about a T-Mobile iPhone at the event, the carrier issued a statement??

While upgrading coverage inside the West side of the Moscone Center, T-Mobile has also deployed 4G HSPA+ service in the 1900 MHz band to test the live network on a small scale. As part of the company?s previously announced $4 billion network modernization effort, T-Mobile plans to launch 4G HSPA+ service in the 1900 MHz band in a large number of markets by the end of the year, which will make our 4G network compatible with a broader range of devices, including the iPhone.

NOTE: The time and location of this test is just coincidental.
