In before the iphone tools

A shame a majority of these users are iPhone users who can't use the 3g because of a major design flaw in the device.

Re: In before the iphone tools

You really think a majority of US 3G users are iPhone users? The iPhone sold much better than we all could have guessed, then...

Wrong again
nobody else but people with the iPhone are the ones having a problem.

Apple reduced the frequency the phone operates on to conserve battery life. Hence why people are dropping calls and can barely hold a 3g signal

This is old news at most mobile websites

Blackberries have always been shitty with RF
this is nothing new

I've had 2

Ever since I switched to Nokias and Ericcsons I've never had a dropped call or net timeouts.

Here is video proof of the terrible rf the iPhone comes with

No problems here in New york city
3.5g is stable and I never see edge.
I'm guessing in rural areas it's a problem

I have no problems in Brooklyn & The Bronx & Manhattan with my Nokia E71 or my old Nokia N95 & AT&T Tilt

Even my father is having problems with his iPhone 3g here in NYC.

It's a combination of a shitty phone and badly placed towers.

Agreed. I had no idea AT&T's 3G deployment was so horrible until recently, after buying an iPhone 3G. Initially I assumed it was Apple's problem, but as I began complaining around friends with other 3G phones on AT&T, I heard the same complaints from them as well.

The ubiquity of 3G hardware is meaningless in the absence of a robust 3G network to support it.

 I've got an old piece of shit RAZR that works incredibly with AT&T's so-called 'crap-ass' network. I've never had an issue with AT&T's network, even with 3G (on my N95).
