Correct me if I'm wrong but essentially the Google Edition is the T-Mobile version minus the Touch-wiz? Seeing as the AT&T model does not support the 1700 frequency for T-Mobile and the Google Edition does. What I get from this is that hopefully once the device becomes available and a developer gets there hands on it all they have to do is apply root to the rom and superuser and it should work for the AT&T and T-Mobile variants at least I hope it's that easy
yes! exactly, this phone for an extra $50 or so, give you 100% flexiblity to switch to T-Mobile's network as it provide's Tmo's frequency and AWS bands. I think this phone will work straight out of the box on ATT's full HSPA+ and LTE network as well as TMobile's. (need to see the frequency specs to confirm this) This is a no brainer, you gotta buy this phone.
What I find interesting is, if you live in an area with great ATT and T-Mobile networks, this phone will cause alot of people to switch from ATT to TMobile simply b/c TMobile offers cheawper plans for the same service if you bring your own device. ATT will still charge you the same rates if you brought your own device, why the hell will you pay $400+ dollars over 2 years to ATT for a phone you already purchased outright? Defies logic, but some people will do it, i suppose.
