I've had several friends ask me why I didn't get Verizon, citing their obviously superior network. I have explained to many people that, yes, Verizon's network is obviously better by ridiculous amounts than AT&T and anybody else as far as coverage area. The thing is though that I don't live in rural South Dakota, so AT&T's network has been more than OK for me. I mean, I guess it would be nice to have 3G on all of I-68, but other than that I pretty much have 3G everywhere, but when I don't have 3G I still almost always have the E network available and phone service at least.
AT&T doesn't have 3G in Tyler County, I guess.

If you look at the Verizon Map, most of WV is hilariously empty.

Honestly, if I didn't have an Iphone and my firm didn't pay for my service with our ATT contract, I would get Nextel, just to have the push to talk function

You can get ptt from ATandT. My Blackberry has push to talk function, but it cost like 10 bucks a month or something, and I think I would rather text anyway.

I got a really fun golf game called Let's Golf! It's $2.99 but worth every penny.
There's also a free app called Dragon Dictation that converts your speech to text, which you can copy and paste to text messages or e-mail. I don't really use it for anything, but it seems like there's things I could totally use it for.

Maybe I can get my firm to pay for that, and it should come in handy since the Iphone doesn't have the PTT function ON THE PHONE

If I am having a conversation with someone, and that person just disappears...I know that they have an iPhone.
If I see someone in a restaurant plugging their phone in the wall under the restaurant table, its an iPhone. That actually happened. My wife and I were eating at one of the hibachi type places and this guy comes in across from us and notices the outlet and left (I assume he went to his car) and came back with a charger.

I heard that Apple is going to open the market this year and offer the IPhone to other providers, namely Verizon. With ATTs customer coverage, customer service and general bullshit, the loss of the exclusivity of the IPhone could be the end of ATT.

I got my iPhone replaced today. It's been on the fritz for a while now, randomly failing to connect to the data network or make phone calls when it says I have full 3G service. I went in with a ton of screenshots that I had taken of it saying it couldn't connect when it had full service, and that combined with the screen needing replaced again because of dust under it led them to just go ahead and replace it.
They said it's "85% new." Hopefully the battery isn't the other 15%.

Yeah, when I could only do things half the time anywhere and couldn't make or receive phone calls or text messages while inside my house or most other buildings, I would almost say I was slightly displeased with my iPhone.

Anyone have any other smartphones they particularly like? My iPhone has something wrong with the digitizer, so the screen is all screwed up. I don't particularly want to buy another 3GS since they are already out with the 4, but I'm also not going to pay $300 for the iPhone 4 when a 5 will probably come out soon.
Anybody like anything else?

I'm down here in Atlanta for the Micro$oft conference and T-Mobile has an HTC Win7 phone that is just plain badass. I think am going to get one but I may wait until the new Mango OS is available for it. I know - Mango sounds about as fruity as LonePalm in South Beach.

Was it just a Microsoft conference, or did they have other phones? Im thinking of getting the I-4, but I'm really tired of Apple's bullshit. I looked at the Micrsoft Windows phone and they look cool. But they seem to be a phone more based in creating documents (Word, Excell, etc),and not as nice for email and web browsing. I hardly use my phone for Office type work. I need/use more email, web browsing and the Pocket Cloud app to log into my Firms server from the phone.
I'm tempted to get the I-4, but it looks like the 5 will come out at the end of the year. My Firm will buy me one phone every two years, so I'm actually thinking about buying the Samsung Infuse myself, and then having the Firm buy the I-5 at the end of the year if I don't like the Infuse. The Infuse is an android phone, which I've never owned, but it has a huge screen, is 4G and is thinner and lighter than either IPhone. And it's half the price. It looks pretty cool.
Anybody know anything about that phone?

I picked up a 64 GB white 4s today over lunch. Fuck a bunch of standing in line before the store opens. In and out in 20 minutes. This thing is totally awesome.
