AT&T woes

2009-09-03 17:29:20.961232+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

New York Times article pushing AT&T whining that the iPhone is overloading their network. Uh. Yeah. Part of the reason we went with the iPhone is that the terms were easy to understand and there was a fixed price data rate. Now it probably happens that much of our heavy data use of the iPhone is actually on WiFi networks, if only because, as the article notes, the cell network can get unusuably slow, but I guess if AT&T is used to billing $1,310 per megabyte, then introducing an unlimited data plan for $40/month without planning for it could cause problems.
