San Francisco to Get 7.2Mbps HSDPA from AT&T in 2010
Once again I ask...
Sadly, the lure and attachment to the iPhone for the several I have on my account make it somewhat difficult to just up and leave.
There is no other "smart" phone, that I know of (and I have tried MANY) that will synch with iTunes, synch with my Mac so I can get my contacts and calendars. I think we might look at the BBs with VXW this weekend, since the new software for Macs just came out.
There are tons of very nice, functional phones out there...I am not trying to ...

I feel for you. This is why we play with things and research things before we buy things. Sometimes I think people who knew about AT&T's network bought the iphone anyway with hopes that it would fix the issues. Unfortunately, there is no app for that.
Very very true.....and I dd do quite a bit of testing. Ported to ATT for original iPhone.....bailed back to VZW. Also tried the E90 for awhile on ATT. Always loved the iPhone, but the original was just not cutting it for me. July of 08, kid was back from college....we took the plunge on the 3G, added lines, moved....it was "good" while it lasted, it really was. Yes....I honestly buy the line that I gave up haveing a better network for the pho...

Is there a Map for This?
🤣 *Never gets old*
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 outside DC. If I go up to my house, 2 miles away, works just fine. They keep telling me it is Apple's issue with the iPhone.....I try to apply logic (big mistake) and explain that there is no hardware issue that will make a phone not work in one georgraphical area......I even used the phrase "There's a map for that" numerous times.
ATT sucks big time....I have laid the groundowrk to move off three iPhones and go to VZW. Granted, I'll likely lose on the ETF thing....but I'll make them work for ...

Seems like the problem may stem from having a mac in your home. They are know to interfere with higher order neurons that control spending [you mentioned multiple iphones on your account 🙂 ]. Unfortunately, I fear that your condition is worsening as you contemplating joining the (other) dark side called verizon.
I have some ideas for you to try :
a)get rid of your mac, cancle your itunes account. Consider Ubuntu or some other linux distro (atleast for a while)
b) To help your reception problems, you might see and improvement if you perform an animal sacrifice at the entrance of the closest at&t corporate store -- I personally recommend a lamb or goat . If you still have reception problems afterwards, then consider...

That was absolutely FUNNY!! Seriously..I actually LOL'd (I'm at work so no rolling on the floor).
Excellent post, thanks! 🙂
I don't care how cool the iPhone is, what good is it if the network its on sucks?
I disagree that the Droid is better, though...but I continue to investigate and keep my mind open. Every time I have to go to the mall to get ATT to fix something...I always stop in VZW and play with the phones I believe could possibly replace my trusty iPhone. Yesterday was one of those days.
I actually liked the Eris better than the droid, overall. Sadly, all of the VZW phones load web pages slower than my iPhone (I know they love it in the stores when I stand there for a while and do side-by-side t...
