Speed of the EDGE network.

90% of the time, its slow and sucky here in SW Florida.

 

Yea everyone trashes at&t but in NJ/NY I think it actually works very well. I am very pleased with the service I get around here. Just my two cents

 

My only complaint is the initial latency. After it gets going, it seems fine.

~190k in San Diego.

 

Speed in NYC is much better than I anticipated.

I was in Denver 2 weeks ago and it flew there.

 

So. Cal. speed is SLOW!!

 

NorCal has pretty good speeds, 100-200k usually.

 

Not bad, I am impressed with the speeds, but you really do need 4 or 5 bars. Some times you can get away with 3.

 

Albany NY area its not bad, although it really amazes me, one moment I have no bars, than 2 minutes later I have 4 or 5 bars.

There is a serious RF problem, and I have not been able to figure out if its the iPhone or AT&T. I have heard in my area that there network is seriously overloaded, and as more toys "cellphones/PDA's come about" its going to get worse before it gets better. I know that 3G is in the area but as of yet is NOT turned on. I do like going into the AT&T stores and turning wifi off on the iphone and seeing how good reception is.

I have the iphone and so far for the most part I am happy , biggest thing is the signal , lack of functionality in the OS of the device along with 3rd party applications, but I am keeping my fingers crossed that later on this month or next month the 3rd party development will go wide open.

You can tell that some people are NOT going to let this device stay locked, no matter what apple says or does.

Cheers
