Lets just hope that the STEVE Jobs exciter wheel of communist communication on the lemon network is over. Android although good in intention has been about as well executed as a GM car that runs on water.
Some consistency and a killer handset that’s not made out of junk plastic with an outdated screen and battery might ad some fresh air into the ATT hell called the Iphone. Why oh Why did Verizon not have it in the first place.
I cant however see the fleet of brainwashed drones from the apple camp lining up for days to buy one .. However have you actually tried to use an apple product lately. Its a total joke. T mobile has a very fast network that has real 3G and not just the 3G logo that comes up on the same frequency as there 2G network.
Oh I did read somewhere that ATT was putting up another 14 towers (Nationwide) this year. Just remember there is an app to let them know your not happy. Soon ATT wont need customer service. They will just have a direct app to India.
This is a highly functional phone, not a lame do-it-all failure.
A very Happy and Rocking Christmas to everyone!! Have a blast!!
