From their prize drawing:

PRIZES: Ten (10) Grand Prizes: Samsung Galaxy S III. Approximate Retail Value ("ARV"): $499

Well while McFuzzlePants says no, I don't see why we wouldn't be able to. We would just need fix the VPN/MMS/I-don't-remember like with the Ascend.

Just went and payed my bill. Guy at metro said he would have the s3 in a couple of weeks. When I asked how much he said 450. So lets see what's up.

Well let's say people get an s3 from T-Mobile now in 2015 they can still use it because its hspa but it won't be lte compatible so either way is not worth getting an s3 from T-Mobile either anyway I will keep my s3 until 2015

in 2015 I will get a nexus or s6 lol

the GSM S3 has LTE

And you have to be a data phobe to tell the diff between the HSPA and LTE speeds anyhow in real life use. Biggest difference is LTE can handle more traffic than HSPA.

I have tmos $60 monthly4g plan, unlimited/unlimited/unlimited on 4g up to 2GB then throttles down to 3g or wtfe lol. I rarely use more than 2GB of data so it works for me.

I was looking at that. Hmmmm

Is that was your Nexus is on? I was looking at the sim card plans to where you can just bring your own device cause their pre paid phones are garbage. So I could buy the phone I wanted out right and then move over to T mobile now and just get the $60 plan.

Yep that's what I did and prolly what pg did, any T-Mobile phone will work without even having to unlock it and others you just have to have the right frequencies and be unlocked

With this merger I really will like to have a gsm/lte phone ready and for that I will wait until 2015 the s3 will do just fine for that time bigger and better things will come ill just wait until 2015

I bought my GNexus direct from Google and took it into T-Mobile to signup & get it activated, even ported my # over to it, & all with no hassles.

No s3 for metro...?? Wait
