Now before I go into too many details, this report came to me this morning, from an AT&T employee who gave me zero evidence to support this other than his/her claim. This makes me incredibly wary of it’s factual basis. Here’s what I was told: the antenna bands on the iPhone will basically be rotated, [...]

When Rogers launched the iPhone 3G in July of 2008 their network must have been beaten to a pulp. They were the only network in Canada with iPhone for over a year, and until Bell and Telus launched their HSPA+ network in late 2009, Rogers seemed poised for a network over-extension. Recently Toronto saw Rogers’ [...]

Last week, hundreds of people around the United States, though online in certain areas, reported a drastic downturn in their upload speeds on AT&T. What was once upwards of 1Mbp/s had maxed out, overnight it seems, at 100Kbp/s. Rumours abounded that AT&T had intentionally capped upload speeds to alleviate the impact of the HSUPA chip [...]

I think we all knew this was coming but if you need more confirmation that there is a shift in the market on the horizon, then look no further than Verizon’s CFO John Killian. He expressed his opinion about the current cellular pricing packages and especially the availability of unlimited data in an interview with Bloomberg [...]

I was browsing GDGT earlier today when I stumbled upon this interesting post. By what I can gather, after AT&T announced their data plan changes, this person started thoroughly checking their data usage. He noticed that his wife’s iPhone was making mysterious data transfers around 2:00 AM, and about 20 MB. This of course, should [...]

What a day! Android up the wazoo! With an overhauled (and admittedly more sexy) exterior, the Samsung Captivate is the same Galaxy S variant we know and love. The specs are well known by now: 1GHZ Hummingbird processor, 4″ Super AMOLED screen, 16GB internal memory, 512MB RAM, 5MP camera (no flash?), custom TouchWIZ 3 UI [...]

Looks like it was a very busy day for Apple and AT&T. Pre-orders for iPhone 4 brought the web to its knees. Twitter was atwitter (ugh, sorry!) with displeasure as users attempted to set one aside for themselves. As for exact numbers, I remembered reading today that it was over 1,000,000 pre-orders but I couldn’t [...]

AT&T, riding on its popular iPhone wave, has yet to truly adopt Android in any great fashion. They have released, and subsequently locked down, the Motorola Backflip, which had the added distinction of being the most inaccessible Android phone ever released. The option to install apps to “Unknown Sources,” meaning any apps from outside the [...]

So we’ve had some time to ruminate Apple’s new iPhone 4. Some people are salivating, some people are just as turned off as they were before (looking at you Androidies!). Yes, it’s meta, but without actually using the device or knowing what’s in Apple’s head, I can only speculate my opinions on the new device. [...]

… and it looks like there is no better time. Dial *639# and you’ll get a text message that says if you’re eligible or not. If so, prepare to cough up an extra two years…, yikes. I’m not sure I can sign away my life like that considering how much AT&T already has me.
