I live in Peachtree city too! I have bad coverage but for some reason I get a good 3g coverage around carrabas. But the GPS is accurate on the golf cart trails.

I live in New York, and I must say, I'm very impressed at what I've got here. From my house in Queens, I always get full coverage and its pretty fast. Every place I've visited has given me 3G coverage. I even got all 5 bars while waiting for the Dark Night to begin in Forest Hills (Queens, again) on Sunday whereas with my Sidekick, I would lose reception in such movie theaters.
I can't wait to go to the city and see my experience there. I love the fact that the GPS also pinpoints local MTA transit buses and trains; that should help when I'm off lost in Chinatown.

Im in Atlanta...at my house i have full bars of 3G, but it doesnt really matter because it gets WiFi anyways, when i venture out, especially where i work which is still considered in the city of Atlanta (and by their map on AT&T, WELL in the 3G coverage area), i get NO 3G coverage, it kicks back to Edge everytime...this was irritating when i first got the phone because i was trying to show a friend of mine the features vs. his old iPhone and it was basically slow as a snail...he actually hasnt purchased one because of this.

Atlanta has a very filled out coverage area, yet i find 3G to be quite hit or miss as the first poster stated. Ive honestly considered selling it and going to another phone but im very happy with all the other features, i just wish that the iPhone's new namesake would live up to its hype.

My biggest complaint thus far though has to be the bugs, my first iPhone, even after being jail broken, was relatively bug free, this one glitches all the time, i was actually IN the AT&T store asking about cases when it did it the other time, guy wanted to see the app's i had and it glitched and reset and took forever to come back on...so annoying.

I live in Tucson Arizona and i get 1 bar inside the best 3g area in the city and the internet is fast but when i make a phone call the person on the other end cant hear me but i can hear them. Once I get about 2 blocks from my house where the signal is suppose to be a little weaker it actually gets better. Then at my job i get 5 bars outside and no service inside. In all of these same areas my wifes 3g lg vu gets minimum 3 bars and never has to worry about a missed called. Ive done the restore, switched iphone and also changed out sim cards and nothing

Thats the reason i updated as well !! and wanted the unlimited data (was running jailbroken one before ) i went back to 02 today had a little bit of a moan but its just sods law!!

UK coverage - Services - O2 << put in your postcode and see if you have the 3g coverage ! i dont where i live but every street around me does haha ! thats sods law!so they said i could cancel my contract within the 14 days if i wasnt happy !! But it will get better !!
