    ATT vs Verizon service

    You may have already made your decision by now, but...The Verizon version has a clear advantage in that it can be used as a Hotspot and the At&t still can not. I went in to buy an At&t model and when the said it could not tether, I left. EDIT: I stand corrected. The ipad 3 I looked at over the...

    Why are Android users so upset by the 5?

    For me it comes down to the eco system...I prefer Googles for my phones. Its more cross platform, which I need. I have to admit I am one of those Android users who is upset with the i5(Though I do own one). Its just disappointing to me that I'll have to wait at least 2 more years for it to be a...

    At&t or iphone 5 radio problem?

    (At&t)Yeah I was surprised. I finally hooked up with my kid at dinner tonight and she said Faux G was now showing. So it seems to have fixed itself. I had her reset the Network settings anyway in case they came over from the i4. The Bars 3-4 stayed the same. I'm glad it seems to be working right...

    who is the Dad of the year? i am.

    I guess I rank pretty high on the Dad list I got the i5 for my daughter. She has achieved far above what I could have ever asked of her...4.6GPA carrying only AP and Honors classes. Still finding time for Jazz Band, Chorus, Orchestra. Plus she takes out the trash! ;) When I told her I was...

    At&t or iphone 5 radio problem?

    Yeah I'l do that, then I think a full restore as new is in order to clear any old i4 files out. Its a restore as new...and then a sync with no restore from backup to keep things clean , correct? It doesn't seem possible that the radio in this phone can't smoke my GN for radio reception.

    At&t or iphone 5 radio problem?

    So my i5 arrived this week, its for the kid. Activated it, got it set up from her icloud backup. So today we are driving together in the car for the first time, and I ask if there is any sign of an LTE signal, she says "no, just edge". So i'm surprised should be 3G(Faux G) I check my Galaxy...

    Spend for 1/2 Subsidy vs iPhone 5s?

    This situation doesn't apply to me...But I still have to buy one. Just sold a 32GB i4 for $290($300 but I shipped) I have another 16GB i4 to sell and I had previously sold a 3GS. So those with a 4S it will compensate nicely for the added upgrade price. You gotta love the resale value of iphone's!

    Do you have an upgrade coming?

    I have 2 lines out of 3 available for upgrade. Though if the unlocked carrier free version is available from apple GSM I'll get that. Or get the full price At&t version. I like to change my phones as often as I like , so I'll do my best to stay out of contract. I'll stick with At&t as long as I...

    Slow sales????

    The factories didn't need much retooling..if any for the case the internals are easier to swap, but even with that they must have ramped up production to be able to supply all the carriers in all the countries at launch. Demand may be less in the US but they are gonna ship a ton of these world...
