I have a dream that one day the Apple nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "that all carriers are created equal."
I have a dream that one day AT&T, Sprint, and Verizon users will sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
 
I use ATT because I get 24% off. Coverage is the same in my area. Been an ATT subscriber forever but do not care what carrier other people use.
 
To the OP. You just have to realize that a large chunk of early adopters with the iPhone, ran to AT&T JUST to have an iPhone. These are the same people who define themselves by the particular mobile device that they carry in their pocket. They really do not have the individuality to otherwise make themselves "stand out". They're kind of like the guys who wear presrciption glasses without lenses. They'd much rather have terrible service, just so they could claim how awesome they were with their first batches of iPhones.

They're just miffed because they're locked into crappy service, refusing to ever believe that anyone other than AT&T would be able to so eloquently define their existence.

Cue the- I get great reception where I live/I don't use voice service anyway/I can't live without data and voice at the same time, even though I rarely get voice anyway, responses. And cue the dislike votes by the sour little AT&T shills.
 
I am a vzw user, have been with them for over 10 years, so with that said I'm a little partial. In my are, between Knoxville and Nashville tn, it's never even been close, Verizon has 3G all over this place and a lot where AT&T doesn't even have edge. With tha said, the 4, is a CDMA only phone and the AT&T 4 does sell for slightly more. Although I'm stunned when people say they can't even sell their AT&T 4 for $300. I can make 5 calls, to 5 different ppl and sell my black vzw 32GB 4, for AT LEAST $425. I can promise you that, as I am going to do that next Friday to replenish my checking acct lol. Both networks have upsides, just go with the one that has the most pro for you. I've read the OP,s comments about LTE, and he is exactly right, it is 10 times faster than AT&T's so called 4G ATM, but considering the S won't have true 4G, who the hell cares. I've got a great idea, let's all chill, and order the **** out of the new iPhone and further, enjoy the **** out of Steve's legacy.
 
OP... do us a favor...
