tyrion Posted July 21, 2010 Report Posted July 21, 2010 There are a bunch of YouTube videos with instructions.
n_maher Posted July 22, 2010 Author Report Posted July 22, 2010 Anyone else getting random emails from AT&T this morning? So far they've suggested that I visit two of their newly remodeled stores... in Michigan. WTF? I'd just be happy if they could get my phone to consistently accept, you know, phone calls.
grawk Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 Yup, I got 4 weird AT&T emails about 2 different remodelled stores in states I don't go to very often.
Salt Peanuts Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 I haven't received any. I feel somewhat left out.
tyrion Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 I received the emails as well, not the first time for me.
MexicanDragon Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 Maybe they tried calling to tell you about the local stores? Oh, wait, n/m. **BRENT**
blessingx Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 I received an email from AT&T asking me to rate my in store activation experience at a MI location that didn't happen.
recstar24 Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 At apple store playing with iPhone 4. I will give it up to them, the display is amazing and it is very zippy.
n_maher Posted July 22, 2010 Author Report Posted July 22, 2010 WTF? Does Apple just have a hard-on for shitty service providers? T-Mobile iPhone will Change the Wireless Game - PCWorld Business Center
n_maher Posted July 22, 2010 Author Report Posted July 22, 2010 the problem is that all of the service providers are about equally shitty. Not in my neck of the woods. With the updated bars on the iPhone courtesy of 4.0.1 I know get a much better picture of just how wretched AT&T's coverage is up here.
n_maher Posted July 22, 2010 Author Report Posted July 22, 2010 It's my world, which is to say that I could give two shits about how their coverage is anywhere else. Although I'd argue that Boston is a better example, where last week AT&T could manage no more than Edge service that was so weak it couldn't find a reliable enough data signal to send a picture message. Or is Fenway Park to rural for you?
n_maher Posted July 22, 2010 Author Report Posted July 22, 2010 I didn't miss your point, I'm just being obstinate. I do want to clarify one thing - I think it'd be great if Tmo got the iPhone. As referenced in the article I linked to Tmo's plans are generally about 30% cheaper than AT&T and some price competition between carriers would/should benefit consumers.
grawk Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 T-Mobile doesn't work terribly well in Cincinnati, if a couple of my friend's experiences are universal. Tmobile has terrible coverage almost everywhere. That's why it's cheaper.
The Monkey Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 Fenway park is way out through the sticks for me, so definitely. you missed my point, though. saying that a carrier sucks because it doesn't work where you are and saying that another carrier is great because it does is too simplistic of a measurement, simply because the reverse is going to be true somewhere else. the carriers all suck. not so much because of their coverage, as no cost effective network is going to be great everywhere, but because of their policies. Wrong. If it works well in Manhattan, it is good enough for the rest of you. How does Tmo work on my island?
laxx Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 T-Mobile's supposed to be one of the best in Queens and very good in Manhattan. I think everything beats AT&T in Manhattan.
The Monkey Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 I think everything beats AT&T in Manhattan. Good point--I'm better off shouting than using AT&T here.
VPI Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 That CNET test showed the T-Mobile service being pretty good in Manhattan. We had t-Mobile BBs at work for a short time and they were okay in NYC but really sorry wherever I traveled. I have still found nowhere in the area that I do not have fantastic AT&T service.
jinp6301 Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 I already have a tmobile iphone ( ) and I had no problems with T-Mobile coverage in queens and in the city.
VPI Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 Got the new Defender Otterbox case for the iPhone. I guess it would do a good job of protecting the phone if dropped but I can't say I am a big fan of it or the iPad one that also came today. The sticky black outer rubber layer gives great grip but makes them a dust magnet and hard to remove from a pocket. I guess I might have to use the giant freakin holster that came with it if it gets too bad.
Voltron Posted July 22, 2010 Report Posted July 22, 2010 you have a lot of unread mail That's not a lot. Mine says 184.
Salt Peanuts Posted July 23, 2010 Report Posted July 23, 2010 kinda defeats the purpose of having such a slim phone, to me. But now you can use it as a bludgeoning weapon. I have one coming my way and hopefully, I'll like it better.
