I blame Apple for this

Apple is the one who made what they call the best most advanced phone ever, without MMS to begin with, what a joke. Now three versions later they finally are smart enough to put MMS one there phones and since there are millions of these out there,now AT&T has to do a song and dance to make sure there network doesnt crash, when 10 million people decide to test there new (but really old) feature out, all at the same time. Hell I just hope I can still make a phone call on that day.

Your entire paragraph was typed by a six-year old wasn't it? 10 million people? There is only 300 to 400 thousand active iPhones on the AT&T network.

So you were only off by:
9,600,000

So get yourself some help.

No its not, believe me, a lot of those users have either upgraded, broke or sold their iphones. A lot have also jailbroken their iPhones and moved them to different networks. 400,000 is the highest number of possible current active iPhone users on the AT&T network.

Negative! AT$T posted that a total of 900,000 plus Iphones where activated on there network the week the 3G came out and an other 720000 with the 3gs. I do believe people bough them and then unlocked them but over a million is a safe bet my friend.

Where did AT&T post this? Because I work for them and not a single document I have read through states this.

So you are telling me that people are happier with T-mobiles EDGE service, maliciously coded apps and even worse battery life with multi tasking, over AT&T's service? 🤣

what are you smoking?

Well, T-Mobile customers with lets say a MyTouch can send MMS messages TODAY! Unlike iPhone users. Edge is a ironed out service which doesn't hiccup the closer you get to big cities (we have been having this debate recently, oddly enough, my brothers iphone on 3G in New York has been running slower then my mothers MyTouch with Edge in New Jersey. We believe this to be because of the heavy use of 3G in New York compared to the perhaps slightly less heavy use of Edge in New Jersey?) What Maliciously Coded Apps do you speak of? The Battery Life on the MyTouch is by no means something to laugh at. I have gone full days with heavy use of most features (demonstrating for example) and come night time before bed I have enough juice to continue (I ho...

There are so many things wrong with what you said I don't even know where to begin!

I have both an iPhone and Rogers branded HTC Magic, I live in NJ, and have very little problems with service with both, and both are using AT&T's 3g. And as an owner of both, I can say they are both fine phones. As a matter of fact, the Rogers Magic has more memory then what the MyTouch offers. And I understand they are essentially the same phones, just motherboard differences. 32a vs. 32b. As far as what you said about VZW, I agree, if was to do CDMA, I think I'd go with Sprint, with all their flaws. BTW, no carrier is perfect.

We have TMO 3g here and I had a G1 (which I unlocked and my daughter uses on edge) I didn't see any outstanding nor did it provide bad performance. With my corp discount the cost is about the same and ...

I was a faithful Sprint fan all up until a few months after the Nextel Merger. Now dont get me wrong, I dont think that was a bad Idea for Sprint. To be honest, I was one of those people who was cheering the merger. I couldnt imagine Sprints Technology with PTT. That was going to be bananas we thought (im comparison to the Motorola Nextel phones of the time, what was the best pre-merger? the I930?). Ahh man I was so hyped. I always felt Sprint had the best phones and Nextel with a max of $50 deposit (at the time) and PTT was killing it. So, putting them together was, should have been, simply amazing.

Then Sprint fumbled the ball and stopped giving a damn about the game. I think half the team went out for lunch 3rd quarter after the fumble...

I'm not sure where you are getting your information. AT&T added over a million new iPhone subs in the 2nd quarter 2009.
