I see this as bad news -- there has been a slow deterioration since the service jump in the beginning of the year. And with waves of new iPad and iPhone customers coming on board, things will go downhill fast if AT&T is dumb enough to think that's its job in Manhattan/NYC is done.
Maybe they are planning for the day iPhone exclusivity ends and two thirds of the users leave for other carriers. Yup, that may be the only way to finally fix AT&T's network.
AT&T -- detached from reality.
Yes, you will do fine -- nothing to worry about.DaveF said:Going to NYC on vacation next month. Staying near Times Square. Will my AT&T iPhone be usable? (thanks)
