Subject: For IP re AT&T and iPhone
Dave --
Interesting NY Times article on AT&T's cellular network and the iPhone:
http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/13/business/13digi.html
"When I set about looking for independent data, however, to confirm the superior performance of Verizon's network, I was astonished to discover that I had managed to get things exactly wrong. Despite the well-publicized problems in New York and San Francisco, AT&T seems to have the superior network nationwide.
"And the iPhone itself may not be so great after all. Its design is contributing to performance problems."
[Note: I am a Verizon user!]
