Yes it did. 350% data traffic increase year over year due to the iPhone.
Any other carrier in the world would have the same problem, if not worse.
We spent 38 billion in 2008 on network upgrades to accommodate the traffic. That's MORE than the market value of Sprint or T-Mobile!

250 feet long by 12 feet tall.

I want that in my house. Of course, I would need a bigger house.

And a better surround sound system.

Is that a promise?

I love my iphone.
Not sure what exactly MMS will do for me, since I can text images now.
My complaint is apps not available in Canada. ie Sirius Radio on my phone. I subscribe for sat radio in my car, but I can't on my phone. What's up with that?

Love the iPhone.... I just love it. Glad to hear that a new device isn't needed... Looking forward to everything Apple and ATT come up with.

My service as far as actually making phone calls have been almost as good as when I was on Verizon. I've dropped a few calls with the IPhone, but nothing to complain about. The rest of the features of the IPhone MORE then makes up for the reception not being too on par with Verizon's.

As long as we're on the subject of I-phone, I just sold my Garmin GPS and got the AT and T Navigator. I heard a lot of complaints, especially about the 10 bucks a month charge, but I got to tell you, It works great! In some respects, BETTER then my Garmin! One less thing to carry with me on a trip!

(Oh.. and... my company pays the 10 bucks a month so doesn't bother me a bit!)

Well, I think its cool MMS is coming and I am sure a new firmware will probably happen before it materializes.

I don't SMS, so I could care less about MMS. I know people have been waiting for this for a long time.
