This is the most sage advice to follow with getting a new provider.
Nothing matters if there isn't any service.
I note with interest that the original poster is in Colorado, a very mountainous state. You'd think T Mobile would be one of the worst providers out there, since they're limited to 1900 MHz GSM. I don't know how they'd get that signal through the mountains, but I guess they do or he wouldn't be using them.
