The iPhone has lead to a increase in AT&T's Networks data traffic by 5x in since it's release, as well as not being prepared this has turned into outages and a 30% dropped call rate being considered well within normal.

If AT&T users want to complain about not having 3g on a network that put bluntly can't handle it. Whats to stop the Verizon users to demand one, they have a larger user base, more coverage both 3g and voice with FREE roaming on Sprints network, and arguably faster 3g, and the phone could be built with GSM 3g and CDMA if they really wanted.

They chose 1700mhz for a reason obviously, lets find out why.
