- featherMARIO, on 07/08/2008, -51/+205BLUE = Full Coverage
RED/ORANGE = Decent Coverage
ORANGE = Meh Coverage
LIGHT ORANGE = Enjoy EDGE - late2digg, on 07/08/2008, -0/+113Just to be clear, only the area in dark blue is 3G. Everything else (red/orange, etc), you will be enjoying EDGE.

AND HAWAII - Yashar, on 07/08/2008, -4/+56What's ridiculous is that people will have to pay 3G prices even if they live in an area where they will not get 3G speeds. (Central US/Alaska)
- inactive, on 07/08/2008, -4/+46Since when did democrats live in texas.
- kerplunk, on 07/08/2008, -0/+41I live in North Dakota. F*ck my life.
- nickspohn, on 07/08/2008, -3/+34What the ***** is Vermont?
- newbill123, on 07/08/2008, -1/+32The AT&T coverage viewer on the att.com website has a more recent map (5/31/2008). It's also interactive so you can zoom in to an area of particular interest.
Go to http://www.wireless.att.com/coverageviewer/ and click on the blue "View 3G/Mobile Broadband coverage (in select areas)" link. - Majjoodi, on 07/08/2008, -0/+30get out of your basement
- Danls92, on 07/08/2008, -3/+27Why does anybody like Vermont?
- michaelpinto, on 07/08/2008, -1/+23Why does AT&T hate Vermont?
- Bodean11, on 07/08/2008, -2/+23That's it, I'm selling everything and moving to a blue area....
- Subriot, on 07/08/2008, -11/+31Very useful map, although it seems AT&T is not ready for a 3G iPhone. *sigh*
- bovox, on 07/08/2008, -2/+20Because you gave us Howard Dean.
- b8teriez, on 07/08/2008, -4/+22Does anyone know if there is going to be a rapid expansion of AT&T's 3G network during 2008 with the 2nd coming of the Jesus Phone?
- brycehebert, on 05/03/2009, -0/+16Yeah, sorry, late2digg is right, only the blue areas have 3G.
The dark orange just means good voice coverage/good EDGE service. - devila2208, on 07/08/2008, -0/+15There's a light orange pixel right over my house. At least it seems that way :-/
- inactive, on 07/08/2008, -1/+16Because I am Le Tired....
- IEatHamburgers, on 07/08/2008, -0/+15Revised key:
BLUE = 3G Coverage
RED/ORANGE = Enjoy EDGE
ORANGE = Enjoy even less EDGE
LIGHT ORANGE = See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Satellite_phone - Proctor, on 07/08/2008, -1/+14Because Vermont is trees.
- quomen, on 07/08/2008, -1/+14The easier the state is to draw, the harder it is to live in.
- p014k, on 07/08/2008, -1/+13But does Verizon have the iPhone?
- Proctor, on 07/08/2008, -5/+16I don't have ATT coverage in my house and my city is blue. Fail map.
- Archer007, on 07/08/2008, -0/+11BUT THEN FIRE ZE MISSILES!!
- Archer007, on 07/08/2008, -0/+11There are AT&T fanboys? *shudder*
- jonthebishop, on 07/08/2008, -3/+14Why doesn't it include their legacy network coverage? I would be interested to see it. I know a lot of people with Verizon phones and outside of the major cities you see on that map service tends to be crappy. I am no AT&T fanboy, I just think that graphic could be a bit misleading.
- EvilCan, on 07/08/2008, -0/+11Congratulations...you live in a major city...?
- shank2001, on 07/08/2008, -0/+11nope, and that is why I am switching. Bye bye Verizon, you just lost a customer of 8 years. If only you hadn't passed up the iPhone when you had first dibs!
- EllimistX, on 07/08/2008, -0/+10It's the people in the rest of the state besides the major cities that turn texas red every time...
- Bots, on 07/08/2008, -0/+10WRONG
On the map, blue represents 3G, dark orange is AT&T’s old EDGE network and light orange its original GPRS data service.
source - http://apple20.blogs.fortune.cnn.com/2008/07/04/is ... - jonthebishop, on 07/08/2008, -3/+12That looks pretty good to me for an area as massive as the US. Most highly populated areas are covered.
- inactive, on 07/08/2008, -3/+12Not when compared to Verizon's 3G coverage.

And correct me if I'm wrong but I vividly remember reading an article a couple months back talking about how AT&T would have their entire network upgraded to 3G by the time iPhone 3G was released. What happened?? - EmitStop, on 07/08/2008, -0/+9Why are you on digg?
- mediaphile, on 07/08/2008, -0/+9@xilni:
Compare this to Sprint's EVDO coverage, and you'll find that AT&T is far behind, i.e., they are not ready to compete. - inactive, on 07/08/2008, -1/+9so Take a Nap...
- MidwestDrummer, on 07/08/2008, -5/+13AT&T 3G coverage = teh failurz!
Sprint and Verizon 3G coverage FTW! - fusionFactor, on 07/08/2008, -0/+8El Paso is 3G, now? Since when?!
- Protoss, on 07/08/2008, -0/+8They all live in Austin.
- jnordb, on 07/08/2008, -1/+8So I take it that's your partner in the wood chipper, eh?
- gordeaoux, on 07/08/2008, -0/+7well, there's the gps, slightly better battery and dramastically better audio. and white. but yeah.
- inactive, on 07/08/2008, -2/+9because CDMA is better for use indoors and is way further advanced of a technology. learn the difference
- rjp_wayne2018, on 07/08/2008, -2/+8That map is exactly why I gave up on waiting for AT&T to come to South Dakota, so I went with the Samsung Instinct from Sprint.
- MidwestDrummer, on 07/08/2008, -3/+9Dead standard? And 95% of the CDMA users in the USA care why? The vast majority of US cell phone users will never need to use a cell phone internationally. Besides, anyone who's not an idiot knows you can buy a prepaid phone in your destination of choice if you happen to go on vacation. Dead standard? I'm afraid not. Neither Verizon or Sprint are going anywhere soon. Hell, Verizon is about to become the largest carrier in the USA and the largest CDMA carrier in the world. Oh, did I mention both carriers offer plenty of world phones capable of operating on heir respective CDMA networks, and also supporting a SIM card?
Your argument = teh failurz! - desertDenizen, on 07/08/2008, -0/+6Take solace in your world-class ice fishing.
- double0jimb0, on 07/08/2008, -0/+6I am pretty sure the light yellow means there is no cell phone service whatsoever.
Just drove from Denver to Rapid City, SD with iPhone, did not have any service for atleast half the trip, which is reflected accurately in that map. - Alexcarrier, on 07/08/2008, -0/+6So, the blue areas are safe from tiberium?
- benguild, on 07/08/2008, -2/+7BUUUUURN *****!
- Archer007, on 07/08/2008, -1/+6I'd only do that for FiOS.
