Abstract: Comment on the recent Nature Materials article by M. Dobrowolska et al., arXiv:1203.1852. We present experimental data showing that the Curie temperature and conductivity of high quality (Ga,Mn)As samples are maximized at low compensation, and thus the magnetic order in (Ga,Mn)As is not consistent with the isolated impurity band scenario.<br />Comment: 6 pages, 2 figures
