Reading the story and seeing how many people were put on hold reminded me of your post.

I know from personal experience with my old HTC Tilt...it was always connected to HSPDA in most areas.  It occasionally dipped into 3G or EDGE networks.

There are no actual 4G networks period. No network currently operating or planned has anything near 4G speeds.

The reference to 4G is in name only.


True, but they are a decent improvement on current 3G networks - if your device has a big enough battery.

Yes they are faster than before but nowhere near 4G.

Lieing is called advertising now. I guess why not since treason gets a slap on the hand.

Ya, AT&T sucks. I dropped Verizon when they were giving me problems, and now, AT&T is worse. On my phone, I only get service about 1/4 of the time and I'm not even 20 miles North of Austin.

Oh, well I actually used to get very good service everywhere. When I had verizon, there was never signal at my house. I get it all the time with AT&T. IMHO, their quality has gone downhill since I first started using AT&T 2 years ago.

I had an awful time about 6 months ago when I had to deal with AT&T customer service. 12 hours over two days I was on the phone due to internet problems.


I watermelon you not.


Two days ago, I was out on the ice in the middle of a blizzard, calf deep in slush in b.f.e. and I had three bars.

Go figure.

While T-mobil works in many areas, it fails in others where I need it. I've been with them for a number of years. I'll be going to AT&T in march.

i stick with em, because the reception is exceptionally good for me. their customer service has never been anything short of spectacular. the plan i have gives me a lot of stuff, and is fairly cheap.
 there are 3 places i have problems. one on arc rd right by the south jersey airport....in a heavily wooded area. second is another wooded area by the same airport on stacey haines rd. the third is anywhere inside my home, but these are only during summer. when i drive to florida, i've never not been able to make or receive a call.
