Re: One wonders about at&t...

Interesting. Thanks for the detailed explanation. This sounds like a problem that might "solve itself" per se as the more GSM handsets that AT&T replaces with 3G devices would push AT&T to replace GSM-only cells with 3G cells.

In the mean time... maybe the people who use the iPhone in the areas you describe should try jailbreaking and T-Mobile.

Valencia, CA		 Why... EDGE on AT&T or EDGE on T-Mobile... no advantage
T-Mobile's 3G runs on a unique 3G spectrum 1700/2100 (not the global 2100MHz listed on the iPhone).

Some might say I am insane. But even I am not crazy enough to purchase a iPhone of any flavor.

Not at full price anyway. If I can get a working original one on ebay for $10 I would consider it.
