You're comparison implies that T1 is faster than 3G, but that's probably not the case except in really poor coverage areas.

T1's maximum data transmission rate is 1.544 megabits per second. [0] While 3G's theoretical maximum is 21.6 Mbit/s for HSPA+. [1]

In practice, 3G is quite slower than that.
