I have been a happy customer with AT&T for over 5 years. I live in a small town of around 70 thousand and we have had 3G service for about 2 years or more now. My calls never fail, I never have poor call quality or reception and data speeds constistenly top 1.5mbps.
However, I live about 2 hours away from the bay and each time I get into the heart of SF my service is spotty at best, and im forced to switch to EGDE unless i want to constantnly switch back and forth to 3G.
