Howz about the Duluth, Minnesota area, eh?

Verizon and Sprint have had 3G up here for YEARS, at&t still has EDGE, and T-Mo is nowhere to be found.

Do people still live there???

J/K but dont you think they should fix there 3g issues in like say NY before they start adding more 3g?

mist668

Clearly this was an acquisition that wa...

Thank Verizon

Thank Big Red for AT&T expanding their 3G footprint. It wasn't till the map war started that AT&T started expanding more and making bigger plans to enhance their network. Verizon in a way helped AT&T with "intervention" 🤣

dave73

I don't believe Verizon had anything to do with this one. Verizon couldn't keep any part of Unicel in Vermont, due to the state legislators asked the FCC to make Verizon divest all of Unicel Vermont, just so the Unicel network went to a GSM carrier, ...
