dumb, i know. but i was young and impressionable

never had a complaint about them though and ive never had any other cell service. went Cingular and then they bought out AT&T as they were going bankrupt... then the shares changed hands and AT&T bought out Cingular eventually dropping their name altogether.

lame.
i still <3 Cingular. prolly a good 8 years+ w/ them.

loyal customer.....
sorry, you still pay 400 or 500 bucks for a 3G[S]

weksos... i repeat.

Everything went smoothly but then i tried to update Cydia and got nothing but errors. So after a little research i found out that Redsn0w has been updated to 0.7.2. Along with this update came a lot of problems. So if you are jailbreaking your phone download 0.7.1 (Google it).

Cliff note: DONT JAILBREAK YOUR PHONE USING 0.7.2 SOFTWARE!

On a happier note, Ultrasn0w has been released. Enjoy 3G users. ^^
I jailbroke mine using 7.2......works fine, but like 90% of the apps dont work properly on 3.0 yet.

MMS = Multimedia Messaging
SMS = Short Message System

MMS is basically pic/vid messaging
SMS is basically your run-of-the-mill txt'ing

One of my friends recently picked up a 3GS. It's definitely faster. We both loaded up the Terminator Salvations demo and the 3GS's framerate was so much smoother than on my 3G.

Here's a post/video with more proof:
tap tap tap ~ iPhone 3GS blows away iPhone 3G in 3D

I'm still on the fence whether or not I'll upgrade.

Ive read around that all att employee's are now instructed to tell everyone the "late summer" thing.. and if they try and enable MMS on your account they will be fired on the spot... I did however get tethering to work without any issues, just dunno what att is going to do once they see you using it ... probably big charges... and as far as VVM it will still work.. you just have to change the APN in the cellular date.. when u load the updated carrier it comes up with wap.cingular for VVM you need to change it to acds.voicemail and it will work just fine..
Well considering my friend is a supervisor for att at the att call center, he can work wonders for me....lol.

anyways, he can make MMS push through, but you can forget about having 70% of the features available on ur phone...

honestly, why does everything have to be perfect? If it'll save me 4-500 bucks, I'll wait on the app to load.
