They've made mention of it, but life it's all or nothing. The whole country won't magically be 3G on 850Mhz with HSUPA by September. Using several factors they will determine which towers get serviced first. Your area may be complete or it may not. There are too many variables to make a blanket statement with any assuredness. Even if they did resolve issues in your area, it's still a cat and mouse game if the iPhone (and other phone sales) are growing faster than they build up their network.
I think he is being sincere.
You know- I'm probably gonnna buy it just the same. The device is just too hard to resist at these price now. Pre doesn't even come close. As a photographer it more than compensates for when I don't have my camera available. This really is a supeior camera/video phone. How are the picture and videos working out for you? The clarity and ease of use?
I am asking serious questions. Why do you think otherwise?
You've asked a lot of questions and made a lot of statements based on what you want to be true or think to be true that it does make your current inquisitiveness a little suspect, thought I do think are being sincere and will continue to address you as such.

This is the best iPhone/value ever issued by far. Why wouldn't I want one?
1) Because the phone was still great before and it will even better next year.
2) It's still on AT&T's network, which you've stated it sucks all the time in your area.
1) Because the phone was still great before and it will even better next year.
It was OK before- the software was and is still great. The phone had no video- not a great camera, battery issues, no cut and paste. All of this has been resolved. Means a lot to me.

If video recording is the main feature you want there are plenty of Nokia phones that do it better (and will always do it better). The real benefit of the iPhone's video is the ease at which you can take a video, edit and upload it to the web.

It's all about the ease and no one does that better than Apple. I am not a Nokia fan. Do your pics looks noticably better? I was playing with it - makiong videos in the Apple store and was just amazed at it. I'm tired of carrying around a phone plus a Touch- and charging 2 different units.
does anyone know whether the 3G S works as a phone any better than its predecessors?

bummer. After three important incoming calls didn't ring but went to voicemail today, I called ATT here (Hilton Head) to ask if maybe my iphone were broken. Nope, they said, coverage is spotty on the island. This is not a Midwestern town sprawling on the prairie with coverage spotty on the remote margins. It's an island, for gods' sake: an isolated geographic area of modest size, yet signal strength is not provided in densely populated parts of it.
Which begs the question: Is there jailbreaking or some practice I've so far ignored as irrelevant to my needs, that would allow me to use my phone -- and all its services -- with a different carrier? Is it a legal practice?
I'm ready to try it. The iphone's phone functionality has always been an embarrassment.
Right now, i'm at a family reunion with non-tech siblings phoning away successfully with the free phones their carriers provided them, and the teenage cousins doing likewise with theirs, across a variety of carriers. It's happened before: at last year's reunion in Tenn., it was the same story. I'm able to use my iPhone in my home in Florida only by using a $300 signal booster.
If there's a way to use a different carrier, who would you recommend?
And if there's not, who's the best carrier if i want to get a simple phone that works? Apparently one of the iPhone's otherwise wonderful bells and whistles is a bell that's missing: the one that's supposed to ring when i get incoming calls.

if you have the 3GS then there is no unlock for it at this time. If you have the 3G and have updated to v3.0 then you there is no unlock for it at this time. If you did managed to get an unlocked iPhone your only option would be to use it with T-Mobile and you'd only have EDGE for your carrier data, no 3G at all. On top of that, we don't know if T-Mobile is better or worse on Hilton Head than AT&T. We also don't know if Verizon or Sprint is better or worse than AT&T on Hilton Head. Do some Googling, you might find some anecdotal information that will help you make a decision about which carrier is best for your location. I find that Islands rarely have good coverage as it's a lot of people all in one area vying for the same towers and bandwidth.

Oh no- this is stearing me into not buying one. A phone that can't function as a phone?
Uh, hello? Am I on Mars? He's already been a part of these discussions before! He's been the one *screaming* about how terrible ATT's service is. And now that there is video recording and a compass you think he's all of a sudden going to join up? Gimme a break!
It's a classic strategy. He's just changing tactics so that when he finally says "oh no, I considered the iPhone, but I finally determined that the voice quality and battery life and the network were just too shabby for me"
I mean, do you not recall all the trash he talks about the people he knows who use ATT in his area?

Judging by the post he made right before yours you may be right. I just can't help but believe that people can grow.

I don't scream like you're doing now. Read the post 2 prior to this one- that guy's reporting AT&T problems not me. All I want to know is - Is AT&T going to fix their 3G network and when? I've been led to believe that they are. AT&T's problems are the last holding out factor for the iPhone for me now. I am willing to give up a few month's of bad connectivity if there is a light at the end of the tunnel. But I need to know a definitve answer. All you can do is play this game of "are you bluffing or are you not"?

Do not judge- listen. There is nothing to grow but age and experience. I am glad to see that you now notice having moved to HOllywood that AT&T is far from what you made them appear to be months ago. ALl that MJ coverage must be intefering with your signal.
So apparently no one knows when AT&T is going to have their coverage working to deliver the iPhone's at its full potential. I still may buy one- I just like this phone. I don't want to but another iPod Touch with a camera instead.

If you say you can't no grow as a human being then I guess I have no choice but to listen to you.
I have not changed my stance on AT&T, saying that I have had 2 dropped calls and 3 calls that didn't connect the first time in a month isn't an issue, it's just a simple stat that has little baring on the state of AT&T despite what you think. I've had dropped calls before all over the country, but they are so few and far between that it's a non-issue when it comes to my service with AT&T. I've had great service in NYC, too.
Your quote below does prove Cameron's statement that you haven't changed at all. You are looking at everything in this black/white, fixed/broken state when that isn't how it works. AT&T is not broken. Getting a couple phone issues when there are thousands of people on Hollywood Blvd. at a Bruno premiere with all the people trying to get to MJ's star and all the regular locals and tourists doing there thing is likely going to cause an issue here and there.

Sounds like you're at the place to be. I plan on going there in August. What is the Apple store like there?
BTW- I'm not looking at things all back or white (one of my favorite MJ songs) if I am willing to forgo semi decent coverage and buy the iPhone.

Come on, Cameron believes I have multiple names and I am the only one who ever says anything bad about Apple.
There have been no bad reviews of the new iPhone if I'm,not mistaken compared to prior generations.
Formatting makes it so much more interesting for the reader.

There are numerous posts on here that take up less than a page yet have four or five paragraphs. That's a little overkill. If all those points aren't valid to you then I will simply claim that I took literary license.
As for the phone itself, I'm loving the speed but hate the glossy black back. It attracts and holds on to grease like a teenager's face. Somehow, my hands actually feel greasier after I use it. That never happened on the 1G. At least the speed makes up for it though. It's much more useful to me now since I'm spending far less time waiting and more time doing.
LOL, and i was waiting for the punch line - Apple Sucks! or Apple sold me a Fake!
Good to hear his lemon dud is no sour apple to him anymore. Yammering aside.
Rumor has it that phone was intended for Apple bashers to get'em back
Haha no I'm quite fond of Apple products which is why I found it hard to believe that they sold me a *NEW* Iphone that sucked more than my 3G. But I'm glad it got fixed and I have nothing bad to say, it was handled nicely. Only other concern is that the 3GS I turned in had pretty bad hairline cracks on the bottom and it was not dropped once. Im hoping it wont happen to the new one but if so I think they replace them under warranty if it becomes pretty bad. Might be wrong but we'll see. :

Is it Sept- 2010,2011- never?????
Do not judge- listen. There is nothing to grow but age and experience. I am glad to see that you now notice having moved to HOllywood that AT&T is far from what you made them appear to be months ago. ALl that MJ coverage must be intefering with your signal.
So apparently no one knows when AT&T is going to have their coverage working to deliver the iPhone's at its full potential. I still may buy one- I just like this phone. I don't want to but another iPod Touch with a camera instead.
If you say you can't no grow as a human being then I guess I have no choice but to listen to you.
I have not changed my stance on AT&T, saying that I have had 2 dropped calls and 3 calls that didn't connect the first time in a month isn't an issue, it's just a simple stat that has little baring on the state of AT&T despite what you think. I've had dropped calls before all over the country, but they are so few and far between that it's a non-issue when it comes to my service with AT&T. I've had great service in NYC, too.
Your quote below does prove Cameron's statement that you haven't changed at all. You are looking at everything in this black/white, fixed/broken state when that isn't how it works. AT&T is not broken. Getting a couple phone issues when there are thousands of people on Hollywood Blvd. at a Bruno premiere with all the people trying to get to MJ's star and all the regular locals and tourists doing there thing is likely going to cause an issue here and there.

Sounds like you're at the place to be. I plan on going there in August. What is the Apple store like there?
BTW- I'm not looking at things all back or white (one of my favorite MJ songs) if I am willing to forgo semi decent coverage and buy the iPhone.

Come on, Cameron believes I have multiple names and I am the only one who ever says anything bad about Apple.
There have been no bad reviews of the new iPhone if I'm,not mistaken compared to prior generations.
Formatting makes it so much more interesting for the reader.
LOL yeah paragraphs, dude, paragraphs.
Sheesh, sorry. I was trying to conserve space on something that was already running long. It's not like my spelling or sentence structure was atrocious. Besides, just because you go more than three sentences does not mean you need to start a new paragraph - especially if you're on the same thought. There are numerous posts on here that take up less than a page yet have four or five paragraphs. That's a little overkill. If all those points aren't valid to you then I will simply claim that I took literary license.
As for the phone itself, I'm loving the speed but hate the glossy black back. It attracts and holds on to grease like a teenager's face. Somehow, my hands actually feel greasier after I use it. That never happened on the 1G. At least the speed makes up for it though. It's much more useful to me now since I'm spending far less time waiting and more time doing.
LOL, and i was waiting for the punch line - Apple Sucks! or Apple sold me a Fake!
Good to hear his lemon dud is no sour apple to him anymore. Yammering aside.
Haha no I'm quite fond of Apple products which is why I found it hard to believe that they sold me a *NEW* Iphone that sucked more than my 3G. But I'm glad it got fixed and I have nothing bad to say, it was handled nicely. Only other concern is that the 3GS I turned in had pretty bad hairline cracks on the bottom and it was not dropped once. Im hoping it wont happen to the new one but if so I think they replace them under warranty if it becomes pretty bad. Might be wrong but we'll see. :
