Today AT&T outlined some of the investments it is making in its network in the San Francisco Bay Area. AT&T plans to increase the speed of its 3G network in the Bay Area to 7.2Mbps starting next year. In addition to the speed boost, AT&T has turned on 850MHz at approximately 850 cell sites in the Bay Area, added backhaul connections, and added about 40 new cell sites. AT&T claims that data demand in the Bay Area has increased by 2000% since 2008. Today AT&T also noted that is has turned on 850MHz spectrum in the greater Seattle area for its 3G network. Customers in these regions should experience better 3G network performance.

You are so right!!! I've been fighting with ATT for what seems like forever....I lose all signal from time to time just sitting where I work outs...

The main reason they should have already done San Fran
If I owned a Nationwide cell phone company (city by priority):
1. New York, Chicago, Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Austin
2. DFW, Houston, Miami(area), D.C.
3. Anywhere else
I'm sure with some research I might choose some others but thats off the top of my head.
better catch up ATT!
