The New York Times' Ken Belson has the scoop on T-Mobile @ Home.
Long rumored, the service marks the first real entry in the USA of a Fixed Mobile Convergence Play by one of the leading mobile operators. In my view this is an important step and well timed, as T-Mobile gets out of the box first with the announcement ahead of the Sprint/Cable MSO's.
Time Warner has previously acknowledged that it too is in trials along the same line with Siemens, using BridgePort Network's Virtual Call Continuity technology that allows active calls to switch between WiFi or hard wired access points connected to the T-W cable network and the Sprint Cellular network without dropping the call.
