Well that is the stereotype associated with the company. You aren't going to change that. Apple has to change that and I doubt they will because that's their market. So you are screwed. Kinda like Suzuki and squids.
Actually there are several tech articles out there showing that it may be Apple's radio code and chips that are responsible for a lot of the problems. AT&T does have problems with their network beyond that though, because a lot of their customers complain about it that don't have iphones. That's why I want to see the iphone go to a different network to see if it is AT&T or the phone.

Yea AT&T is pretty bad. Unfortunately, T-Mobile just got worse because they lost their partnership with AT&T and with it their towers. On the upside, T-Mobile let me out of my contract and unlocked my phone. Now I have to decide where to go from here... the Droid is tempting but I'm not a fan of Verizon's rate plans. I have little interest in surfing the net... I'll probably get something like the Omnia II or a similar phone. I'm really going to miss that 8M camera on my phone though... We'll see, I bought a sim card and got a go phone plan to test AT&T out before I make a final decision.
If I were choosing between the I-Phone and the Droid and the network didn't matter, I'd go with the Droid because it has a better camera set-up, a real keyboard, unlocked wifi (wifi is faster than 3g I believe) for when you are in a hotspot or at home/work, better video, can be used as a BT modem, and the replaceable battery can be a big deal. It was on my GPS decision. $25 vs $80 to send in for replacement. Personally, I don't like Apple or Motorola. Almost everything I've ever purchased from Moto has been fucking junk!!! My reasons for my disdain of Apple has been covered in this thread already. What I want is a phone with a large touch screen, a slide out keyboard, an 8M+ camera with a fucking real flash, please, on a network with good coverage that will give me unlimited phone and text for under $60!!! I though I was there with T-Mobile...oh well.
