I am really happy regarding the news! I love the fact that since AT&T is the exclusive carrier in the U.S., less people will have the chance of acquiring the phone. Maybe I am being a little selfish, but I would rather another "Razr" episode did not occur; people who can afford a product paying $800 when it first comes out (because of exclusivity), and then it becoming available for free with a two-year contract. Talk about unfair...
And you wonder why people think Apple's customers are stuck up snobs? Please keep those comments under wraps. Burry them deep, deep down as you are giving us all a bad name.
ATT's customer service is incompetant. I think we all know that when trying to find information about the iPhone from them. Verizon's customer service is a million times better. If/When the iPhone comes to verizon, I'm switching back.
Quoted for truth. ATT
was my first carrier. Way back when they were ATT. Then Cingular happened. I was with them until the end of my contract and then ran as far I could. ATT's customer service used to be there to help. If you had an issue, you got a credit. Cingular will never give you a credit even if they over bill you. Talk about killing the name of a great company. (oh and they fired most ATT staff and brought their own in.)
Good company, huh?
In your opinion, but myself and others would disagree.
ATT customer service is horrid. I repeat, h o r r i d . Good luck trying to get any help from them or even getting a hold of them. Apparently I am not alone. Here are the customer satisfaction ratings from 2007.

Where was ATT? Enough said.
ATT is the only reason why I don't have an iPhone. I have an iPod Touch and will use that. If they add a mic, speaker and a VOIP app, I will upgrade to a new iPod Touch. No iPhone until I can use it with a
half way decent carrier.
