    Default AT&T reception?

    Looking at changing to AT&T for my cell, specifically an Iphone, curious what folks can tell me about the reception from them along the front range especially in Colorado Springs.
    Dude, where's my can?

    I have AT&T. I have an old phone (about 5 years old) but my wife has an iphone (her bday present last year). Neither of us has had a problem here in the Springs nor nationally (we travel to TX/TN/NC quite a bit for concerts, family, etc).

    I have the iPhone and it works great. The reception is pretty damn good all over. Not sure how it is in the Springs but I'm sure there's a cell tower down that way. Some problem areas are Granby and that area up there and if I'm deep in the woods but, thats a given!

    AT&T is good with their cell coverage,

    but their 3G coverage does leave something to desired in some places.

    My GF has AT&T and the iphone and it sucks out in east boulder, the 3g is SLOW, And reception is shitty too. I have t-mobil and where I live its great, It even works in my basement. If i call her when she is in a Wal-mart, she dose not get any service, and I will text her and she won't get it for a few hours. this is how it looks when she goes out and I call her.

    Me "(Swettie, Honey, Love of my life, take your pick) we need more TP for the Bathroom"
    Her "what You made PEE PEE What?"
    Me "Toilet paper"
    Her "what? Graper?"
    Me "ARRRRRRRRR"

    Slow 3G on the iPhone? Idk if there's something wrong with her phone or not but I have the 3Gs and it's much quicker than any of the other phones I've compared it to (blackberry, pre, droid, etc.). The problem is finding it, just about every time I browse around my phone will switch from full 3G to shit for no reason at all.

    Verizon seems to work up here better than AT&T.
    I guess none of them are fantastic unless you live in FL or somewhere like that.

    As far as traveling is concerned...Verizon is 10 times better than AT&T. I fly all over the US and haven't had a dropped call in verizon is probably 1.5 years...since I got the new LG Dare.

    the 3g on AT&T is faster on the iphone IMO when you are in a good 3G spot but AT&T coverage is sparse compared to Verizon. A lot of people I work with have Iphones and love them...hell I love them and want one, but only on the Verizon network.

    Right now I am patiently waiting for upgrade to hopefully the new google phone, if not then the droid.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.
