T-Mobile Has No 4G Plans, Sticking With 21Mbps 3G HSPA

Don't worry T-Mobile users, there will be a day when your 3G Network will be the best network in the country. Yep, even though your current 3G network is in its infantile stages, T-Mobile promises that their 3G network will eventually reach 21Mbps (other 3G networks are currently trapped under the 7.2Mbps limit). The one problem? Every other carrier will have moved to 4G already. Eek.

In the short-term, you really have nothing to worry about. 3G is real, 4G is not. And for the next couple of years, it'll stay that way. It's going to take time for the other carriers to roll out their 4G (LTE) network, which would assumedly play to T-Mobile's favor. But once their 4G network is finished, it'll leave T-Mobile in the same spot it finds itself today: a generation behind, scrambling to catch up.

What do you guys think? Is T-Mobile being smart by sticking with superspeed 3G or should they plan their 4G network already?
