Tons of dropped calls indoors.
1-2 second delay between when you speak and when the other person hears you.
People leave you messages but no flag appears for hours.
Have to reboot to get the correct time after landing in another time zone, etc.

I've had AT&T for over 3 years and it has worked well for me all over the east coast. I have been on Cape Cod with people who have Verizon and Sprint. Those of us with AT&T were the only ones getting a signal. Those results have been consistent with a Motorola Sliver and Razr as well as the iPhone.

Really, my life won't be complete until I can stroke my phone.

Research In Motion (RIMM 69.92, -4.05) is a primary source of weakness in the Nasdaq this morning. The company posted for its latest quarter earnings that came short of what Wall Street had forecast. Its shares were subsequently downgraded by analysts at Goldman Sachs.

I haven't had my Bold very long. I could have bought an Iphone. I have used my sisters more then once. The more I used it the more I wanted a Blackberry. I do miss my Treo touch screen at times but I love the fact that I still have the full keyboard.

BBM will keep me around for a long while i think.

RIM joins the Phail party with the other CRAP OS's
Microsoft's Windows phone 7(WM7) Fail.com... for real
Palm, havent kept track with them...just the Pixi is bad ass.

Android, With the release of Eclair (droid 2.0/2.1) and the Nexus one.
(dont you love how all the versions are food? Cupcake, Donut and eclair)
Droid market is still growing...

Apple has done something pretty cool, BUT as some one compared the WM7 to the i-phone they are both "n00b" or Unsmart phones for stupid people..
How many are there now 3? the i-phone, i-phone3G and the i-phone 3Gs?
Marketing:
*Lets not put the abilities on yet so in a few months the next will be "better"*
Sorry, But i think AT&T is fucking Apple up the ass...


And speaking of apple, Verizon users you might be getting the first CDMA iphone, they are supposedly working on it.


A big plus for the T-mobile users...We got the first android phone released BTW.
HSPA+ = 21MBPS and is backwards compatible with HSPA7.2(3G 7.2MBPS)
T-mobile is going to release it soon... So all you Mytouch 3G, HD2, etc users your 3G punted 4G to....Africa with its 10MBPS

Eh, You will ALWAYS have a Cell Phone War,

I Absolutely Love my Tour. And I just Downloaded 5.0 for it and its Awesome.

I dont see the Appeal of the Iphone enough to warrant spending Hundreds of dollars to "Jump Ship"

And ATT is Garbage...So sure they can conduct studies and surveys...let the ppl switch to ATT...Have fun with your Shitty Service and Dropped Calls.

Ill Stick with Verizon...Watch how many people switch to Verizon when they get the Iphone...It's gonna Be Biblical.
