"A better 3G experience."

I suppose if you enjoy a terrible experience, it might be better for you...

 

[Abrahm]

Verizon should sue them!

Yeah, I don't even know what a "3G experience" is. Being on AT&T's 3G network is definitely an experience but something tells me that's not what they were trying to say. . .

 

[ninfanlink]

lol half of those things are because of the iphone. At&t would be F***ed without it!

 

[captaincharisma]

id like to know how AT&T can prove that. it didn't say that they had a independent party do a survey or anything.

lolz +5 if I could

I think Verizon should counter-sue for AT&T's claims of the "fastest 3G network." Where's the evidence for that?

And no talk and surf? I can take a dump, talk, and surf at the same time. I dunno why AT&T claims I couldn't.

Most popular smartphones? As in iFone, iFone 3G, and iFone 3GS??? Well, I would count them as one. So smartphone wouldn't be plural... but on technicality, ok, let's give AT&T that one. But the best has nothing to do with a popularity contest.

100k apps? Does that also factor in all the redundant and useless apps? And gVoice being "in review" means 100k apps are useless, cause the most necessary app is not approved.

I agree! And what does the number of apps and the actual phone have to do with the underlying 3g technology and its speed/availability? AT&T just trying to trump the iPhone.

 

[duckmanx88]

lol where is t mobile and sprint. they should get in on this. "while our competitors squabble over 3G networks and spending millions on advertising, we're working on our 4G network and infrastructure."

How do you like it?

 

[frozenlead]

Verizon: We are the best wireless carrier, and here's why...
AT&T: We've got the iPhone.
Verizon: That's cool, but we've got better...everything else.
AT&T: But we've got the iPhone. Win.

AT&T - They've got the iPhone.

That would be the fade out.

Haha you beat me to it! I heard "The IPhone" the whole time through. Why the hell would I want to talk and surf the web at the same time? I guess "There is shit for that"...

 

[David the Gnome]

Their commercial should say, "Do you want an iPhone? Well then you pretty much have to."

Exactly!

I have to admit, if Sprint was in my area...I'd drop "...that has a V in it" quicker than shit!

 

[Ramar]

To be honest none of these companies are very nice or treat their customers properly. Why would they treat their competition any better?

Helio was the closest I ever found. They were bought, and now they suck too.

But even if any of this WAS true [shame on you luke wilson!], it's basically only true if you're a hip enough twenty-something to be living in a populated area. What's AT&T's coverage, like 10% of the US?

 

[surfer1337dude]

Well....AT&T Does have the faster 3G Network....too bad its only by something like .2

 

[icepick314]

Verizon COULD sue AT&T for "false and misleading advertisement" because AT&T never mentioned iPhone in that ad anywhere....

 

[itadakimasu]

I think microsoft should have sued apple after it's first couple of "i'm a mac" commercials... but they haven't.

How much is a data plan on verizon anyhow? I was looking and the only thing i could find was like $89.00/month.

I'm an iphone 3g user and mostly happy except... come on... why don't i have flash player and java capabilities? I should have a full web browsing experience but I don't. Still happy w\ my weather and maps app, and easy email access.
