As another AT&T/Cingular subscriber, I agree wholeheartedly with  
Lauren's sentiments. All day, it has been vitrually impossible for me  
to get and/or keep a connection with my Samsung SGH-A707 (a/k/a  
"Sync") ... I live in Maine ... and I'm very angry!

One can't help wondering if AT&T was so preoccupied with hyping and  
reaping profits from iPhones that they never bothered to ensure that  
they'd be able to handle the resulting, obvious increased demands  
upon system capacity.
