From TmoNews:

“This poster, taped (poorly we might add) on the wall outside a meeting is our glass slipper, our unwavering proof of a date that will live in T-mobile infamy. Mark your calenders folks, October 1. Wake up, walk outside and breathe that 3G air.”

“Hey Bob – we’ve finally set the date for when we’ll be launching 3G services in 27 launch markets. Should we write a press release?”

“Write a press release? Pah! We’ve got paper and tape!”

Sure, the story is a bit weird, but the guys over at TmoNews tend to be pretty spot on. If they’re saying 3G is coming October 1st, we’ll believe it.
