So let me get this strait. Because tmobile has no drrop calls and the blackberry has better battery life, you hang out on a iphone forum. Do you think anyone here is going to believe anything you say?
Got a tip for us?

Really? Is that why I have full bars on 3G everywhere I go? If you noticed, 3G from AT&T is located in places and cities that matter and are more heavily populated. Why would they put 3G towers in the boonies or in the desert? More so, in central U.S. where there are tornadoes spinning around constantly?
Answer: (1) people in the boonies are worthless and have no money, therefore no profit for AT&T. (2) How many people actually live in the desert regions of the U.S. I mean really? Again, not much profit gain and they would have to build expensive 3G towers. (3) The tornadoes infested scenario speaks for itself.
On another note: T-Mobile sucks. I had it, and got nothing anywhere. Sure their customer service is decent. But they offered me more minutes for free. Problem here was I couldn't use them because of no damn signal anywhere. And I live in a metropolitan city so there really isn't a reason for that. Plus, let's not forget there is a tower not but 2 miles from where I live. I have never experienced a dropped call. Verizon. Tsk Tsk. They actually have to stoop to the level to compare their **** with AT&T. Just like the Droid against iPhone commercials. However, I can't say much because Apple has their ads against Microsoft. But at least those are funny and I'm sure even Steve Ballmer finds them somewhat comical. Hell, maybe even Bill. [:
But yeah, I have AT&T and an iPhone 3GS and have full 3G every step I take and have never lost signal. Yay for eastern USA. The better half of the US. <3
My sister with tmobile can't even make calls when visiting us, unless she goes accross town, traveling with tmobile service is the pits.
Yes, I think it was brought back because soon it's possible for Apple to partner with other carriers.
Ok
the contract with AT&T expires mid 2010 so how about we wait see what Apple says in June as of now the option is AT&T and T-mobile so unless Apple changes to allow CDMA then that's it. the subject has been discussed and rumored to death. In June we will know pretty Sure Apple not going to to decide what to do based on this forum or any other! Apple does what Apple Does they always have!
