I live in bfd GA, I have AT&T and I have a 3G signal 95% of the time, and I get the mobile TV service out here, so how is this kid in Jersey trying to sue for having non-existant 3G? He's trying to get a pretty penny, its bogus.

Wait, wait, wait...You live in Georgia, and that means there HAS to be 3g service in NJ? You're dumb. I'd like to say much more, but moronic imbeciles like yourself just wouldn't understand. You and Jyakotu should move in together, you'd make a great retarded couple.

Ok, lets look at this situation, we have a kid, on a message board, on a phone website, talking smack, and they're the one calling someone else an imbecile/ retard...really? I bet most, if not all, of you guys who talk garbage on these things suddenly grow a pair once you get in front of your monitors, you guys are pretty pathetic, but eh, what are you gonna do, when dumbasses mass producing, they're bound to pop up everywhere. So Spartan, I don't blame you for doing what you do, its in your genes, its all you know. But word of advice, before you call others moronic, do realize that when a moron calls another a moron, the word does become null and void, its like using a double negative, the word loses its meaning. I hope you learned something =]

Let's do look at this situation, shall we? You live in Georgia, correct? K. You say that because you get 3g coverage, Mobile TV coverage even, that surely in NJ, where the lawsuit is taking place, there is in fact 3g coverage, and this person is trying to make a quick buck. Welcome to class, because you're about to learn a few good lessons. First off, the iPhone 3g (Which you have a Vu, so your point if it was at all relevant is no longer relevant.) has a KNOWN issue connecting to 3g. It's known, people have known this since July of last year. It's not new, it's one of the main flaws that even though you can be in 3g coverage the iPhone 3g will only pick up 2g EDGE service. Hence why this guy is saying it's misleading because it says 3g, but why has so many devices failed in picking up 3g? And Apple claims they've fixed this, but they haven't. And it's not number 1 on their priority list. Second off, I'm not sure if you've realized this, but lately in the news AT&T doesn't have the greatest network by a variety of good sources such as Consumer Reports and JD Power & Associates. And also, AT&T doesn't have the greatest rep when it comes to advertising. Remember the "Fewest dropped calls" campaign? Do you know why they don't air it anymore? Competitors filed cease and desist orders because in the tiny, tiny fine print it said through a third party survey that in the Twin Cities, on every other Tuesday afternoon between 5pm and 5:30pm, AT&T had the fewest dropped calls. AT&T has been KNOWN to mislead and falsely advertise about their network. It's not new, so whether or not he's trying to make a buck, it's not BS. They're known issues. Now, about talking smack. I called you a moronic imbecile because you came in swinging on a phone industry forum saying some guy is BSing the lawsuit. You obviously didn't know any of the above topics before you posted. Therefore, when it comes to the industry, you don't have a great knowledge of the history and happenings of the industry. Yet YOU feel the need to spew your biased and unfounded opinions on the topic. And you're calling me a kid? You really think that I'm acting all big and bad because I think you're a moron because you spoke out on a topic you knew nothing about? Yes, you're right, being correct and calling people like I see them is in my genes. Oh, and Artz, don't give people advice if you can't take your own advice. You dare to chastise me about calling people names on forums when you call my parents and myself "dumbasses?" Take a little of your own medicene there buddy, if you're going to make a point about anyone talking smack on a forum, don't call them "dumbass." The point you tried so despreately to make has failed before you even posted it. You're the pot calling the kettle black. So today, I hope you've learned to THINK before posting anywhere, not just here. I think it's a lesson you, and some of the other MORONS on here could benefit, like your pal Jyakotu down there, droppin' F-bombs. I mean really, at least I had the common decency to not use profanity. Oh, and one more thing. If you think I grow a pair just in front of monitor, you're wrong. You're free to try me outside of cyberspace just for me to prove my point.

why are you putting down the iphone the phone so many of your customers have left your ass for and you make more money than AT&T we will see who makes more in June when the new iphone drops and i make more off the internet plan alone then your whole months check..... and lets not forget how shitty the storm is dont even get us started on that

26. Jyakotu posted on 24 Mar 2009, 10:07

People just love to spend time bitching about cell phones and carriers. Verizon customers have their head stuck up so far up their ass. You forget how many people have returned the Blackberry Storm and how many people have left Verizon just so they could get their hands on an iPhone. Verizon, if they were so confident, then they wouldn't have bought out the competition now would they? After all, they didn't need to buy out Alltel since they had coverage EVERYWHERE right? NOW SHUT THE FUCK UP VERIZON FANBOYS!!!

29. The Spartan posted on 25 Mar 2009, 22:02

Yeah, people like you obviously. You are just like your boy Artz, screaming about how dare people do something on the forums then you do it yourself, hypocrite. And no, I didn't forget how many people returned the BB Storm. You know why? WHERE'S THE NUMBERS MAN!? You got 'em!? No, you don't. So instead of dropping F-bombs and telling people to shut up, go back up your hypocritical smack talk with some real answers or shut that trap of yours. Moron.
