[QUOTE="IvanLasston, post: 1261807, member: 145676"] 1 - I must have cut and paste wrong. [url=http://www.intomobile.com/2010/05/05/att-customers-log-the-most-dropped-call-complaints-verizon-claims-least/]AT&T has most dropped calls, Verizon has least says study[/url] I believe this is the link I was aiming for. But any google search will show that AT&T suffers from dropped calls. But it also shows people are satisfied with the iPhone on AT&T. Fine with me, sounds like you are satisfied with it. I was not so I let my money do the talking. 2 - AT&T has coverage in Colorado, but once you leave the cities/large mountain towns AT&T drops to edge - which happens a lot more than Verizon going to 1xRTT. I've also taken road trips through Wyoming and Montana and had 3G pretty much the whole trip on Verizon, whereas AT&T was mainly edge, except in Jackson Hole Wyoming. 3 - I agree - but as I said, I shouldn't have made a blanket statement. My point of the post - is I was trying to use voice and data at the same time. A WebEx call is a pretty good indication of how well a voice/data connection works because the WebEx is constantly streaming, and voice is on. My WebEx meetings generally last over 20 minutes. I have yet to successfully complete one on the iPhone from AT&T. I either drop voice, or the WebEx stops responding. Fair enough that the two are not inter-related, again my point was, anything that was over - say 10 minutes I either lost voice or WebEx stopped responding. I do not know if other meeting services suffer from the same problem. So yes, it could be the WebEx service that died, but no one else on the call complained about data updating. I guess for general web surfing (generally much more forgiving on data stream) + talking it is OK. For when I was doing small stuff, and small talking it worked. Generally < 10 minutes. 4 - I agree - and I digress again - see above. 5 - My co-workers and I all had AT&T iPhones as well. Arizona, California, Colorado, are where we mainly stay but we travel coast to coast. Yes you could make calls and use data. I am sorry for giving a blanket statement. I am now giving my experiences with the AT&T iPhone vs the Verizon iPhone. YMMV. [/QUOTE]
