So get over it and realize that cell phones are a "nicety" but not an "necessity".
Have you ever tried using your Sprint or Verizon phone in a third world country? Oh wait, you usually can't because most of the world uses UTMS not CDMA.
AT&T should not be singled out here. The technology of cell phones and the lack of funding to correctly deploy it to get around its limitations are the real culprits.
Jesus, what a LOAD OF BS.
AT&T has BILLIONS to spend - it's just a greedy MF corp that does NOT want to spend anything beyond necessary, rather take it out as a profit.Secondly
they sell their services as RELIABLE and for MONEY - nobody should take it as a "nicety", that'd be downright idiotic when you PAY for it.
Lastly
you can use your Crackberry Storm with SIM cards because it's a hybrid GSM/CDMA phone, moreover if you ask for it you can get at least a SIM card for traveling.
You should read your Terms of Service and Service Level Agreement. Also recommend you read AT&Ts financial report because they don't have billions for network upgrades for their wireless division.
