| Some coverage maps showing 3G areas
»www.wireless.att.com/coverageviewer/ then select the 3G check box and zoom in to area you want to check. 3G areas are BLUE.
Here is a link that shows the 3G coverage by state & locality. Click on 1 and it zooms to that spot on the coverage map. »www.wireless.att.com/coveragevie···p_3g.jsp -- My BLOG .. .. Internet News .. .. My Web Page |

The ATT interactive map doesn't show 3G when zoomed out, only at city level. I think it was done that way to be a deterrent to not see the lack of 3G national wide, or see how little markets have it. |

They advertise 500-800K upstream, but what kind of speeds are people really seeing? |

| AT&T 3G Just lit up in my area
To my surprise last week I notice my Cingular 8525 PDA lit up with the 3G icon. This is great, and I wonder if I'll get the new upload speeds right away? We used to just have an EDGE network here, but it's nice to see I can finally make use of 3G at home. |

VOIP over EDGE doesn't work very well. The latency is too high and the bit rate is not guaranteed. Maybe 3G will be better. |

Ouch, these speeds are barely faster than EVDO Rev 0, and not even close to EVDO Rev A (or B and C for that matter) |

VOIP over edge works great on the iPhone - not sure what you were trying, but yeah, just like at home over DSL/Cable, every once in a while it has issues (anything will over IP) - but it works good enough to have an understandable conversation just fine. |

join:2007-06-12 Rego Park, NY | BTW, is AT&T also upgrading those ancient T1 lines to the towers to match those revolutionary new speeds? No point having a 1.4 Mbps downlink if the tower itself is only 1 T1 line, with multiple users maxing it out. |
