ATT will throttle you for 2gb of Data or more

[Hellvalley]

Then why 2G? Why not 1 or 1G? 2G doesn't make sense because of how many became confused calling the iPhone 4 the 4G. This was confusing for some who thought this meant it was 4G speed. Regardless, it's the original iPhone, not 2G. Even the edge iPhone would make more sense. They don't call World War I World War 2 do they?

It is called the iPhone 2g because it uses the second generation of mobile network (EDGE or 2.5G). Oh, and by AT&T standards, the iPhone 4 is 4G; it uses HSDPA, and not 4G LTE.

Shall we get back on topic. Its quite obvious that you'll never understand why the iPhone 2G was dubbed "iPhone 2G".

I just dont understand ATT, they throttle their already super slow network down to nothing.

I mean unthrottled they are ten times slower than Verizon, and throttled they are 100 times slower. I dont understand how they are getting customers. Who is signing up for this bad service slow service company?

I understand why people call it that, I just don't agree with the label.

Oh so now the iPhone 4 with AT&T is 4G huh? I wonder why they don't advertise it as such? Must be a big error on their part. <sarcasm>

Whatevs.

I can tell that you truly can't grasp the concept of what we're saying, but that's okay. AT&T advertises it's 'HSDPA' as "4G" the iPhone 4 uses an HSDPA radio===>(HSDPA 7.2 Mbit/s, UMTS, HSUPA 5.76 Mbit/s, EDGE). Notice the HSDPA? So, yes, the iPhone 4 can technically called "iPhone 4G" Whether if it was meant to be called that or not doesn't matter.

To put this to rest, the Motorola Atrix 4G is an HSDPA device, but it it called a '4G' device. Do you understand now? Shall I link more Wikipedia articles to you?

Oh, and '4G LTE' is different than '4G'

Single celled organisms...

Hmmm, sorry but AT&T unthrottled has a much faster network than Verizon and that is a fact. 3G that is. 4G pretty much even.

AT&T hardly has any LTE while Verizon has LTE in pretty much every large/ medium sized city already.
