this is good and bad news. My birthday is on Nov 18th, and the timing is perfect, but i want to wait for a 32gb iPhone so I can fit all my music on it......damnit, this is gonna get really hard now.
Where was the store? I live in Manchester, and I'm guessing Mnachester will be covered

The store was in Salem, NH so I bet Manchester will be covered. Also, lemme find you the link to AT&T's New Hampshire plans... Hang on.

Thats really good to hear. I think I'm gonna hold out for a 32gb iPhone, though its going to be really tough.
Tomorrow is Nov. 17th and I just got an extra confirmation by an AT&T guy at the Mall that it is in fact getting turned on TOMORROW. I'm SOOO excited for this you guys. He also said that it could take up to a week for everything to be finalized. I'm suspecting they'll have issues because everyone will wanna be on it tomorrow if they flip the switch.
Anyways... it will be out BEFORE Thanksgiving and tomorrow (Nov. 17th) is the official launch date that they have told the AT&T employees... lets hope they keep their promise. But, as far as the AT&T store knows, tomorrow is the day. I'm so excited!
Check out the coverage viewer... it says it was updated 10/31/008 and it's blue in a TON of places in New Hampshire! My home town is solid blue and where I work and in Portsmouth and Concord and Rochester and Somersworth... it's blue everywhere... not to mention in Maine as well!

I also heard that the Quad Cities (Davenport, Bettendorf, Rock Island, and Moline) will be getting 3G on November 17th. We'll see what happens tomorrow. 
you said manchester, hamshire... etc and AT&T but to my non geographal mind, that makes it in england? and at&t are putting 3g towers up in england?!?! if not then im confused lol sorry
Oh dang... oh well. I'm gonna keep checking my iPhone all day anyway. Hah. I really cannot wait to see that little 3G icon because I've never used 3G before.
FYI, a poster on HowardForums says they talked to someone at AT&T and said that there is several towers having issues in NH/Maine, that is why 3G hasn't been turned on according to schedule (even AT&T's coverage map now shows NH & Maine having 3G).
Expect it within the next 1-2 weeks.

Hello to my fellow Nh residents by-the-way. Good to see some of us on these forums.
Another NH here...just waiting...finally turned on the 3G switch on Monday looking every so often to see if the little E is gone.
In odd somewhat unrelated news, I've found that my battery life is actually better with the 3G turned on and I'm getting much better coverage even though I'm not getting 3G...four bars inside my house instead of the toggling 1 to 2 bars.

Hello fellow NH'er. I check my iPhone like 50 times a day to see if the E is gone. Hah.
Latest HowardForums update, someone talked with an AT&T tech working at one of their cell towers and they claim 3G will be turned on tonight or tomorrow!

Granted this was in Maine, so that doesn't necessarily mean it will happen here. As always, there is the disclaimer that any last minute problems could result in another delay.
In other words, I will believe it when I see it!

That's nice to know, since I live in NH, and Nov. 17th is my birthday!
However, I still don't think ill plunge for the 3G.

That's excellent news. Don't get me too excited all over again. Hah. I'm trying to remain calm.
Hopefully we'll get it before Thanksgiving.
no 3g yet in Nashua, NH
hello to all NHers. good to see and hear from you all.
I turned on 3G on my iphone after like 3 months hoping to see the 3G icon replace the E icon. Didn't happen. Wonder when it will be enabled in Nashua. Has anyone seen 3G in NH so far? The ATT website says we have 3G in NH.
Hoping to see it come on real soon.
Thanks to this thread without which I would never have known that 3G was being introduced in NH.
