Closets to iPhone OS with just data? That's the only thing you see similar?

I could careless if Android decided to call their next release OS XI, it has nothing to do with what I'm talking about. I said Android devices are closest to iPhone devices in the ability to load up a network.

I for one am glad that AT&T is investing millions upon millions of dollars to upgrade their network instead of just half-assing the situation which many of you seem to suggest you want them to do. QQ more, there have been ways to enable these "locked" features since the iPhone was first jailbroken, so there's nothing to complain about.
Oh you mean like...the super fast 3G speeds...more bars in more places...crystal clear non dropped calls via the great AT&T network that we as customers get to enjoy now from the second biggest mobile wireless company in America?

The graphic used in this story is in conflict with the article. Seeing the word "finally" on the graphic leads me to think tethering has been approved. It should be changed.

Since you used teeter totter in your headline, maybe that would be the better choice of school yard equipment to show instead? Unless you have a thing for contradictions.

All you people whining about AT&T not offering tethering yet aren't very bright. When they do offer it, they're going to charge for it, and with so many people tethering, it's really going to hurt their network.

Not to mention you can get tethering NOW for FREE if you'd just look around in these very forums.

Exactly. $60.00 for one of the modem packages a month and you can bet that the iPhone won't be any cheaper. You would be better off buying their aircard and saving your iPhone battery in the process.

That's what it seems like because it took them soooo long after the 3G iPhone launched to admit there was a deficiency in their capacity.
Yes he was serious, and he's right. But you don't know what you're talking about. Why would AT&T spend billions of dollars to upgrade their network before the iPhone was launched when they didn't know it was going to be such a success?

Rolling out a competent 3G network before the 3G was launched? So you'd rather Apple release all the newest generations of the iPhone to other countries while we'd be stuck on the original iPhone, EDGE-only? Speak for yourself.

AT&T is CONSTANTLY updating their network, and they're investing billions of dollars to do so. It's just hard to keep up with the demand. You know why Verizon's network is more reliable than AT&T's? It's because most of Verizon's phones are sh!t that don't use nearly as much data as the phones on AT&T. About 1 in every 4 people on AT&T has a smartphone. More than 1/3 of those people have iPhones, which use up over 4 times as much data as the average smartphone. So if you took away the 10 million iPhones on AT&T and added 40 million regular smartphones, you'd have about 55-60 million smartphones on AT&T. That's over half of their subscribers.

Like I said. AT&T is upgrading their network. They're just having a hard time keeping up with all the data sponges on their network.

Yep! Well, except for the crystal clear calls (though the call quality isn't bad - just OK), but I don't talk on the phone much anyway. For everything else, AT&T has done a great job in my area.

Not $60 in addition to your iphone plan. $30.00/month just like tethering on all other phones. and if you are using the USB cable it keeps the phone charged.
