I have noticed recent improvements in both Edge and 3G service. In fact, Edge is so fast it rivals the 3G of a year ago. That said, if iPhone goes to Verizon, I will probably switch because the wife has it, and it would be free mobile to mobile. As an aside, T-Mobile was the worst by far. where I live, ATT works extremely well. I have noticed recent improvements in both Edge and 3G service.

Even my Kindle, which I understand uses Sprint often fails to connect. My cheap pay-by-minute phones which in this area seem to be using AT&T often say "no service". These company's claims of network coverage are a cruel marketing joke for those who don't get coverage confirmed by a real person, or on-the-spot test. When I first moved here I had Verizon, and it "just worked". Unfortunately for my usage pattern, it was just too expensive and I felt I wasn't getting enough of a cost break for being an "all-Verizon" customer. I'm glad to see the economy forcing these companies to give users more bang for the buck... at least some of them.
