| ouch! Wow, this dude has quite the gumption.
Guess somebody has to step up and say that the TDMA based network totally sucks for calls, and calling them out on data details is also funny.
A phone's primary duty is to be a phone...
I had a TDMA based phone once - it sucked terribly. Dropped calls while sitting still with full signal. Even the customer service folks were laughing when calls to them were suddenly dropped... GSM isn't any better for calls either (since it's based on TDMA).
Brag all you want, but if it sucks, it sucks. Tout data all you want; if calls suck, they suck. Doing both at the same time? Haha, yeah, until your call drops for no good reason.
I don't condone the call to action here either, but damn it is funny that this guy has the guts to slam on them so hard.
I'd personally like to see TDMA based phone service totally go away. It causes headaches, buzzes radios strangely, drops calls way too often, oh, and sucks terribly all around.
How it got to be a 'global' standard still confuses me. It must've been the "easier" choice, but I certainly don't see how it's any better than CDMA. |
