[Hidden-tech] Verizon urban myths

[Roger Williams]

Thanks for the correction. That certainly should be a valid distinction between the two different 3G implementations. It didn't work for me a few years ago with an early iPhone, but that may have been a limitation of the phone.

Roger,


AT&T's service has no problem doing voice and data at the same time, I do it nearly every day. 3G is not a set standard, and AT&T's GSM network allows simultaneous voice and data whereas Verizon's CDMA service does not.


Best,

That is going to be the case with all carriers, at least until Verizon rolls out 4G LTE in our area. 3G services can't simultaneously handle voice and data.

During our recent power outage I was tethering my Android phone to my laptop
for internet access (yea EasyTether!) and I would lose the internet whenever
anybody called me. I could not tell you however if this was an issue with
Verizon or EasyTether.

another story all together. I've been an AT&T customer for many years
(formerly Verizon) and think it definitely has superior coverage in outlying
areas (West County hill towns for instance). The other nice advantage is
that the data network is usable on AT&T *while* on a call while it is not on
Verizon. While I mostly should NOT appreciate this convenience I do, it
means I can see what new email have come in etc. even if I am talking on the
phone on a headset for instance. This is not possible on Verizon with
iPhone.

This is an interesting myth that gets repeated by ATT in their ads so often
people start to believe it...

I have a Verizon Droid and regularly use the data network while I'm on a
call. There's never been a problem.

Is there anyone who actually has had this problem on Verizon?
