AT&T screwing its EDGE iPhone users? | 9 to 5 Mac.
When I was in the Shoals area visiting over the holidays, I did notice that EDGE was way slower there than I remember it being when I was having to use it when I had the original iPhone. I could barely use the Google Maps because it took forever to get the map data to transfer. If AT&T is doing this in the Shoals area, it's ridiculous, since there is no 3G there.
The fact that they're doing it elsewhere really sucks.
The 3G iPhone rocks, I love it. I don't regret purchasing it so soon after laying out the cash for the original one at all. I routinely stream radio stations in the car, and play YouTube videos on my way to work, something that you just can't do with the original. Still... this smells of bait and switch. For a lot of of folks the original iPhone is fine at true EDGE speeds.

Yes you are right about Edge ! But I’m so glad the iPhone just came about?period! So whatever I guess they need to screw us so they can make all the money. So Steve can eat tonight . I am a bit upset but it only hurts when I pay and I do have a choice .
