3G & HotSpot@Home

Any one Know if there is any hope for a UMA (hot spot@ home) & UMTS (3G) phone to come out this year. Maybe even one that runs off of Windows Mobile? Has their been any talk at all? It seems like at work we are the last to know. We officially find out about a phone 2 or 3 weeks before it is available. At most 6 weeks if it is nothing special.

um i dont think so. But t-mobile would have to have a 3G network before it a UMTS phone would actually work at those speeds on the tmobile network

Here is a list of T-mobile phones with 3G and UMA

Right now T-mobile don't have any phones slated for release with bot UMA and 3G.
Oh, and 3G will be out by the end of summer, 2008.

I was asking about a phone that is capable of both UMTS, and UMA.
