hahaha! Now ATT customers know how it felt to be with VZW! At&t: a second rate company with third rate service.

EPIC FAIL! VZW has loosened its restrictions and ATT has tightened them.

Apple is doing the same with the iPhone, and they're not even getting help from AT&T. HA! I see more articles about Apple dropping apps from the iPhone because they don't like them. It seems Verizon quit making the "koolaid" and sold the recipe to AT&T. Now there's blueberry "koolaid". :P

anyone still not think that Apple put some pressure on ATT for this crap? LOL. Cant have direct competition on the same carrier.. even on a middle of the road Android.. The whole ATT app thing is nothing new though. Each phone as crap software of somesort on there that u can remove unless you root it and put on a custom rom. Go ATT! Keep it up!! Tell us how you wanna move into 3rd place when you lose iphone exclusivity!! LOL.

AT&T has 80 million people. They can reach like 3 times that. What does that mean if their network service is horrible? AT&T is slow and well, horrible. They should have never had the iPhone since their network clearly can't handle it. This andriod phone is actually one I would rather use as a paperweight at work than as a phone. Y the hell would you want to make this phone so stupid looking??? Someone else comment I agree with 2......"2nd rate company with third rate service"

This is a sad thing to hear. c'mon AT&T, the whole point of having an Android device is to customize however you'd like. fail.

Well the reason they crippled this phone is the Iphone, Why would they want a truly open source phone that can take away from Iphone sales. At&t dumb idea, you should not burn bridges this way it can come back to bite you.
