The ads do clearly say that they're comparing 3g coverage, right? What's the problem?

Genuinely curious.

You didn't read the last paragraph, did you?   :-)

No, I did.  :-P

I'm just not sympathetic to ATT. Maybe it's from personal experience with the old ATT Wireless.

Either way, expecting not to get hammered by Verizon on network quality is silly. Of course that's what VZW is going to promote. ATT's job is to come up with some other reason why people should do business with them. Like data speeds.

Do something creative and think of a situation where there is a real benefit to the higher speed on their network. And then promote that. Don't waste $$ on some DOA lawsuit. :)

Saw the misfit toys spot during MNF. It's really pretty good. I'd say it's better than "there's a map for that."

Methinks AT&T is kind of playing with fire.

That said, there's a fine line between funny and annoying. We'll see how long Verizon stays on the right side...

I just went to the Verizon store today and played around with the new Droid.  Pretty slick little phone.  You all should go check it out.

anyone have issues with

a) easy example is when you click the scroll bar on the paug to go from "general topic" to "on phish tour" or wherever, when i first got the phone all the forums were there to scroll, now my only option is the forum im already in? any ideas?

b) easy example again b/c of the paug, if i quote someone then want to type i cant scroll down once within the dialogue box, any way to scroll down, this happens to me on other websites as well, just not the same context

I've def. experienced "B"

I just figured out "a", if I click the topic in the scroll menu rather than the arrow, my only option is that particular category, but when I click the arrow all forums are there.

A friend of my wife just got a 3gs and her maps app is a bit different, she has an icon of a person where you can click and then it shows you the up to date satelite photos, mine does not and I'm updated

Someone needs to write a PHP forums app that makes forum posting easier/better on the iPhone.

Interesting that no one has said anything about the Droid.  Everything I've read online has been positive and that it's the first phone to give the iphone a run for its money.

All I was saying is that it has some serious potential.

It's cool, but the iPhone is more than just the hardware now.
