[Hidden-tech] Verizon vs. AT&T coverage

Hi Stacy et al,

I have Verizon and I have good coverage in Shelburne Falls.  In fact, I just
got a Motorola Droid (luv it) and I am getting 3G coverage in Ashfield near
the Conway town line!  It comes with unlimited downloads which AT&T stopped
offering a couple of weeks ago.  In fact, I think I read that AT&T has a 2
GB per month cap.  The old iPhone users are grandfathered in with their
unlimited downloads but new users are on a short leash.  AT&T has had years
to try and figure out how to handle the bandwidth load brought on by the
iPhone but they just haven't been able to do it.

AT&T is the only service that works in Buckland (Shelburne Falls). Used to
have Unicel until it became Verizon and tried for a month to get/place calls
from W. Franklin County before needing to switch to AT&T. I get full
coverage, but it is Edge and I'd agree bandwidth is an issue. My husband
uses a regular phone and has lapses in receipt of his email of days - Phone
reds 0 messages when he actually has 20 new ones!  
AT&T store in Noho told me last week all of MA will be 3G by the end of the
year.  I'm not holding my breath.
