The new E71 I just received is the North American version, meaning it supports 3G speeds on AT&T’s network. Up until now, I’ve been on T-Mobile for my US GSM needs, which means I’ve been using EDGE for my data access.

Well now that I have a 3G capable phone, it might just mean I have to switch to AT&T to get the faster HSDPA data network. Unfortunately, this means less voice minutes. For $30/month, I get 300 anytime minutes from T-Mo and unlimited weekends, AT&T only gives 200 anytime minutes sans the weekend minutes for the same price.

Should I do it? I’ll keep you posted.
