| Some other factors involved too In this area AT&T's 3G network deployment is roughly a year behind Verizon's. Plus, going from GSM/EDGE to UMTS seems to be a more involved upgrade than it was for Verizon to go to EVDO. Of course, US based customers don't really care about the underlying technology, unless they travel internationally.
When the iPhone 3G came out, it shined a big spotlight on issues I had been seeing for over a year with my Samsung Blackjack: Dropped calls when transitioning from 3G to Edge, and poor 3G reception. Those issues are much better now. But, AT&T needs to work harder on coverage.
It will be interesting to see how smoothly and how quickly Verizon is able to transition to LTE.
