| I can only hope... ...that all this attention forces AT&T to speed up their 3G rollout.
I have been a Verizon fan for ten years - since I had Bell Atlantic Mobile. I now live exactly in the center of four of their towers and yet can't get any service at home. I can in the yard, but if the wind blows the right way I lose my call. If I go 1/3 of a mile either way, the service works just fine. Up until I moved here, I have only once been someplace that Verizon didn't work and someone else did.
I had to switch to AT&T. It's the only provider that works reliably where I live. The whole BS about "more bars in more places" is, well, BS. But at least I have service at home and most of the places I travel to.
Interestingly, AT&T shows I live in the middle of 3G coverage. I have to drive 8 miles before I get that coverage. Nice.
So again, maybe Verizon's ad campaign (which is utterly brilliant, can't believe they didn't do this sooner!  ) will force AT&T to get their stuff in order and get 3G out sooner. |
