30%? Wow. Never thought I's say this - because I've been grumbling about ATT's abysmal network here in coastal Los Angeles for a long time - but if that's really the case, you guys in NYC might have it even worse than we LA folks do.

Also let's be sure to put this announcement in the context of their original 3G announcements.

I don't see iPhone for Verizon anytime soon, but I can't miss a chance to rant about AT&T. The 3G service in coastal LA is a real joke. I get 3G about 15-20% of the time. I'm on GPRS (2.5G) another 10-15% of the time; the rest is EDGE (2.…

Those of us in Los Angeles, however, have long been used to "almost unusable" 3G. It's been this way since the first iPhone 3G came out. It's inexcusable, but AT&T doesn't care much. Here's hoping Apple finds a way to break free of 'em.

TM is great conceptually, and if/when it works, but the program has serious known issues I won't hijack this thread with. If you're interested, however, a search of Apple's Discussions site will show that the company is aware of the issues but …

All of it looks good and important, but wow, it'd be super nice if they'd fix Time Machine.

Update as posted in the other thread: I'm in coastal LA (Venice) - supposedly blanketed with 3G coverage - and the phone spends maybe - (and I'm being generous) - 10% of its time on 3G. About 80% of the time it's on EDGE. The other 10% - I sh*t y…
