iPhone and AT&T in Boston

[bostonGuy]

Hi all,

I'm a newbie to the boards, I just order my first mac a few days ago and I'm thinking about getting an iPhone. I live in Boston and have heard from a few people that the AT&T service is bad. I was curious if there were any posters on this board that live Boston and their thoughts if they have AT&T service.

Thanks!

FWIW, I was in the Newton area a few weekends ago and ATT service was fine here.

I travel all over Boston-Brighton-Watertown-Cambridge-Belmont-Randolph-Quincy, and the reception is just fine. DO NOT settle for anecdotal evidence though. Type in "Boston" and "MA" in the right places and hit "view map". The only real problems I've had are in some supermarkets and in certain dense neighborhoods which defied good reception when I was on Sprint too (but my AT&T reception is better in those places than Sprint/Nextel was).
