As noted in:

T-Mobile is planning a 7.2Mb HSDPA rollout by the end of this year,
and is claiming a 21Mb HSDPA rollout starting next year.

They've also been rapidly expanding their 3G footprint, to the tune
of about a new city every 1.5 days:

Where I'm located, I tend to bobble between EDGE and 3G, but 
a look at the detailed coverage map: 

http://www.t-mobile.com/coverage/pcc.aspx?MapType=Data&WT.mc_n=3GMapCoverage&WT.mc_t=onsite

shows massive expansion since I checked just six months ago or less, with
most of the greater suburban L.A. area now 3G enabled.  

One thing I really like about T-M is the incredible detail of their maps -- 
in the past they've even e-mailed the exact location of new nearby cells
of interest.

It's amusing that despite all the efforts to get people to say "mobile
phone" and such, the common term remains the much more technical "cell
phone."  The advantage of a single syllable, perhaps.
