Try not to look around and see everyone and there brother using the iPhone 3G! AT&T has a great 3G network that I use in a rural part of Florida with great success and when I visit any major city it gets even better due to more towers! I unfortunately have never been to Southern California so I cannot speak to the claims, but for most of the United States I have had great success. As far as reception to phone, Im pretty sure every phone company stays away from that figure. As for T-Mobiles 3g network, yes it would be nice to know there capability but everyone should know it would be a waste this early on to see the results. I would stand by the report and take a review that explicitly says I only know about Southern California and uses suck in an article with a box of salt. So thats three people then.

I live in lower Manhattan, and have seen and heard horror stories from friends with AT&T. Even with five bars they get no reception and are constantly dropping calls. So yeah, AT&T sucks. Pretty much everywhere. For the record, I have Verizon and get reception just about everywhere, and have had only one dropped call that I can remember. That was when I stepped into an elevator.
