Probably to be similar to the Verizon thread about "Is Verizon Where You Are?" And see how many people have AT&T service around them.

I for one, do have AT&T service around me because of the Dobson buyout, but Dobson did not cover our market that well, so our "AT&T" service is therefore limited and not the best carrier to have.

Yeah, but the Verizon thread went off on a tangent, and by chance evolved into something that isn't totally useless.

Maybe there's some Particular reason the OP started this thread. We'll see if he comes back with a follow up on it.

Looks like AT&T has a long way to go in Virginia and West Virginia. Lots of no coverage in those states.

Then why not say that in the original post? And instead of thinking up a cleaver name, how about naming the thread AT&T's latest coverage map? You made it sound like they were hiding something in the thread title, and then had no explanation once someone opened the thread.

The coverage map you put on is not their map. It includes roaming. Here's native only map.

You are technically correct ofcourse, but since all post pay plans are national plans and include roamimg, for all practical purposes the previous map would be the one to follow to determine coverage.

Ofciurse for a prepay or Go-Phone your map is the correct one.

PS: I have at&t where I am and it is by far the best of all the others,

Could you please include some sort of a description with the pictures that you post? Photobucket and other such sites are blocked from work and without any verbage all I see is a blank post. The other alternative is to load the picture as an attachment and then everyone who logs in, would be able to see it.

HMM maybe that is a sign you shouldnt be on here at work and actually work at work lol jk.

I think att has just as bad of maps as Verizon. Showing coverage in places like on the tops of mountains lol. Anways I guess it is good to see these once in a while.

We all have opinions on things and that is fine. I think if everyone is adult enough we don't need to let it get to that point. Anyways we should keep it on topic cause I might have another post get deleted from this thanks.
