Three & T-Mobile to share 3G infrastructure, increased mobilebroadband coverage

Hi

Had a quick look and it didn't look like this story had been posted
before - certainly sounds like a great plan for 3/T-Mob customers!

Same as Orange/Voda, nobody left for O2 to pair up with.

Not quite -- Orange/Voda are just sharing at specific locations.
Three and T-Mobile are talking about blanket sharing across their 3G
networks, and removing some masts in areas where they both provide
coverage.

The way I read the Orange/Voda agreement sounded like full network
sharing, perhaps that is how it was intended to sound though?
