ATT preparing for the launch of a new phone that will be so popular they won't be able to support it without more towers FTW. ATT releasing worthwhile phones FTW. Also, whens the last time you heard about Verizon getting a phone that was so popular that it overloaded its towers? Yeah I know.

it doesn't overload the towers because verizon has so many...much more than at&t

Please Verizon hasn't had a good phone in years.

do you understand how impossible this concept is to fathom? From a productivity aspect this is counter productive and will set ATT back years in the race to be the best 4g network out there....to state they can deliver 7 mps on the current and signals is proposterous and laughable....they cant even deliver 3g speeds to over 60% of America and now they are proclaiming that they can rebuild and offer more in a few months? FACT..... ATT can NOT restructure their current set up to deliver 7 mps on an average due to lack of bandwidth and the old technology they use to deliver their current 3g services. FACT....if they were to invest in this, rebuild their towers and deliver something like this, they would be putting their 4g network to the side then and would be giving the clearest of advantages to Sprint and VZW since both netoworks are both currently building and testing their 4g or LTE technology as we speak. All this for a revamped I Phone? A handset they dont even own and subsidize every time they sell one??? I look forward to this, clearly this is a desperate attempt to salvage a great product that is on a n inferior network... once this fails miserably , Apple will look just as backwards as ATT does right now. BB Storm FTW

you are right godfather haha lol. BLACKBERRY FTW.

You must not understand the concept of business and making money. ATT is hearing the crys of users and fixing the problem, and making service nationwide even better...and at the same time preserving the service once the next Iphone comes out. You don't see this since you have your head shoved so for up Verizons ass that you can see what they ate last night. You are either the biggest idiot that has ever posted on this site or the worlds most elaborate troll.

@ Godfather, Do you work in ATT's infrascructure? Im sure you don't, so neither of your so called FACTS can be proven. Omnia HD FTW

9. The Godfather (unregistered) posted on 06 Apr 2009, 11:11

actually the company I work for has helped att develop all of their signal enhancements for edge and for their 3g network. So yeah, I do.....and yeah they are FACTS

10. heavybreathing posted on 06 Apr 2009, 11:18

Prove it. What company?

25. superawesomeguy posted on 06 Apr 2009, 17:06

lol...godfather was right and that was very well put!! FACT! oh and by the way what the does FTW mean??

28. ccarrier012 posted on 06 Apr 2009, 21:37

FTW means for the win

11. artz1986 posted on 06 Apr 2009, 11:24

Sweet, improvements are always good... other than that, all I'm seeing on this message board is a couple of kids sucking on gigantic carrier cocks. Its pittyful how bad some of you guys are up the asses of these companies..

12. heavybreathing posted on 06 Apr 2009, 11:28

Honestly, the Storm and the Iphone are both good and bad in their own ways. The people with their heads up Verizion/ATT's asses are freaking mindboggling. If the carriers were so bad they wouldn't be in business. PERIOD.

13. artz1986 posted on 06 Apr 2009, 12:03

my language might have been a bit harsh, but its crazy how easy any post can turn into a war between VzW and AT&T, knowing that seeing how they're both on different networks, its like arguing how grilled chicken is so much better than baked chicken, even though they both taste good. The Iphone and bb Storm are good phones, but hopefully this ends it.. if there wasn't an Iphone, there likely wouldn't be a Storm, this argument would probably be between the VU and the Instinct or something..

14. E.N. posted on 06 Apr 2009, 13:49

There probably wouldn't be an instnct or vu either.

23. artz1986 posted on 06 Apr 2009, 16:44

..i dunno, seeing how LG had the Prada, and the VU looks almost exactly like the Prada, I think there would have been a VU... but maybe you're right..

26. superawesomeguy posted on 06 Apr 2009, 17:10

THIS IS A FACT ALL THE WAY! FAST & FURIOUS!

15. insider80 posted on 06 Apr 2009, 13:52

att data network is and always will be a joke and the is the biggest downfall of any iphone it will always suck because it doesnt have a network to perform on
