I hope 2010 brings even faster speeds and more awesome hardware to AT&T. ]]>Mar 6th 2010 11:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/
who would possibly want ATT nexux one?
the whole point of that phone is being able to take advantage of T-mobile 3G.

Fact is, T-Mobile uses higher-frequency bands which don't penetrate walls and buildings as well. Here in South Florida, AT&T is very heavily biased toward 850MHz, which, incidentally, gives me great indoor coverage.]]>Mar 6th 2010 12:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/

Suuuureee, unless they live in a remote part of SO. FL, you're stretching the truth by a wide margin. T-Mobile 3G is no worse than their 2G -- they just don't have 3G installed on all of their towers, YET.. ]]>Mar 6th 2010 9:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/Yes, indeed you are correct.

I hate that they called it the Droid cause I can't talk to any average person about Android cause they say "The Droid on Verizon?"

No stupid, the OS... "Whats an OS?"

/facepalm

Should of stuck with Milestone, no one knows what Android is...]]>Mar 6th 2010 11:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/

I think the cost was about 18 billion for the total overhaul of the network with upgrades and new sites.

And I believe Google did say ALL major carriers would get the Nexus One. And as for the HTC Desire, those bands are AT&T's bands so if it ever goes states side, AT&T would be getting that.

What I really want is the Dell Mini 5, but I think I have to compromise for something less :(]]>Mar 6th 2010 11:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/

A Family Data plan would be nice. AT&T is competing against Verizon's data plan rates. if anyone of them drops, they both drop.

AT&T and Verizon don't care what happens on Sprint or T-Mobile's plans]]>Mar 6th 2010 11:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/Mar 6th 2010 12:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/
T-MObile had Android phones before any one else and are getting the HD2. I don't like T-Mobile but they get sweet deals on hardware.

Theres also the ubiquitous 3G coverage with Sprint? Have you ever compared AT&T and Sprint's 3G coverage maps? Theres a HUGE difference, making Sprint the 2nd biggest 3G network behind Verizon. The only reason Sprint has worse indoor coverage is because Verizon and AT&T have all the lower band licenses in the US... But thats what' free Verizon roaming on Sprint is for! :D]]>Mar 6th 2010 1:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/06/atandt-announces-slew-of-network-investments-for-2010/tmobile = nexus one

Blackberries are all CDMA and GSM compatible cause the antenna in them are multi-band. RIM just flashes a certain OS for each carrier to activate certain bands.

I'm not disagreeing with what you say, just commenting on what I'd like. There are a number of good phones that are worldphones. Some of the new HTC WM phones and android phones coming out will be world phones.
