| Message to AT&T: Cry me a ****ing river Seriously. Friday isn't a peak demand time for AT&T (New Year's Eve is if I remember correctly) so theoretically they should be able to handle demand just fine. If not, their ndata network deserves to go down to AT&T can become the laughingstock of the wireless industry yet again. Their voice network will be just fine through all of this; I wouldn't condone a "call all the people you can and leave the phone off the hook" flash mob but this won't impact emergency services one bit unless AT&T has their network totally screwed up.
I'll be doing my part Friday with a data card. Not that I wouldn't have been downloading stuff over that connection anyway; I'll just be using 900MB in an hour rather than, say, 300MB. Both figures are well under my cap, I'm most definitely paying for the service and at the time the AT&T 3G connection will in fact be the fastest broadband I have available (yay being beyond DSL and cable) so I'll stress-test their network without a second thought. Especially since the only other people I know on AT&T in my area are either GSM-only or have iPhones. Those folks don't need the solid data network anyway, right?  |
