Is it possible that it's the Iphone that's the problem, and not ATT's network?. . .
Really, the only people I hear complaining about ATT's network are Iphone users, and BB Bold users, that's it. I don't hear people with Nokia phones, or Samsung, or LG phones complaining.
Could it possible be that Apple is better at building Ipods than they are at building cellphones?
Here's the full article that I read, and there's a funny pic of an upset Iphone too.
UPDATED: AT&T customers speak out over poor service

I am an Apple iPhone user and I like it, it does a great job for me, I am not a fanboy or anything, the phone just does what I need it for and coming from an HTC 8525, I really like the small footprint of the phone. However, this past weekend I went out of town to a state park here in Indiana where cell phone service is spotty, always has been in this area, but this year I noticed I got 1 bar, where as my friend also on ATT has regular phone nothing fancy to it, I think its a samsung, and he had full signal. We all pretty much used his phone when we needed to make calls. And for my friends on Sprint or Verizon, they had zero cell phone signal.
So I tend to believe it could be a phone issue and not a ...

It does perform better in some areas of weaker signal than the iPhone. But then, it's just a phone.
I switched my iphone to Tmobile's service and do not have any dropped calls (it's been 3 wks) and voice quality is excellent. This is my experience with the iphone and it made a huge difference not using it on At&t. I still like At&t's service overall but when it comes to this phone I would never recommend it on their network.

The 3GS has nothing that the original iPhone shouldn't have had in it. 3G radio (First one shouldve had it), video recording (first one shouldve had it), MMS, voice dialing, tethering, 3 megapixel camera... The list goes on and on. The marketing guys over at Apple deserve huge raises if they haven't received them already. They clearly know what theyre doing and right now theyre doing it better than anyone else.
