    Default EDGE network unusually slow lately?

    Since I got my iphone (right after the price drop, last year) and until about a week ago I was able to stream XM via Orb.com. For the past week I noticed a dramatic difference in it's ability to stream audio. Not just from orb either. I used to be able to stream Mp3's online through it as well along with youtube via EDGE, but now it takes more time to buffer it than it does to play it, so it's pretty much impossible to do anymore.

    Does anyone here work for AT&T or has anyone else noticed it? I'm running 1.1.4 btw

    well here is the up and the down side of ATT 850-1900 to make more bandwidth ready for umts or 3G diffrent areas of the country have had there 850 turned down and more data being handled by the 1900 side of the network. With that said the 1900 side acording to once source that works for att as a tower teck. says the 1900 side of the network is just a speed dawg so yes depending on where you live and here in TN thats me slow dows will happen. sry guys
