Yep- T-Mo's churn is still high, but it too is much improved from a few
years ago.

T-Mo's biggest problems right now, IMO, are the lack of 3G, and a crummy
lineup of phone (partially because of the lack of 3G! T-Mo refuses to add
3G phones to it's lineup until they launch 3G, and typically only the low-
end and some mid-tier phones today omit 3G, making T-Mo's selection pretty
ratty looking.)
