internet on sprint is fine tho spotty at times.

and please show me iphones on 3g pulling down 10mb+ :rofl:

every iphone ive seen speed tested in person has trouble hitting 1mb/s.

It's not 10mb+, but the 4S is noticeably faster from the 3GS and 4:

Sample Size:
Provider Count
AT&T 10065
Sprint 907
Verizon 1632

i have no problem browsing the interwebs on sprint's 3g (tho yes, it usually tests pretty low). ill take my real world tests over...wait, this was done by gizmodo? fuck those guys :rofl:

theyve surgically replaced their dicks with iphones.

ive seen iphone speeds and theyre no better than sprints (verizon beats them both up with no problem it usually seems). maybe its just the area that sucks for most of us :dunno:

i guess i should maybe rip on the att network and not the iphone itself. att speeds have sucked dick when ive compared them with mine (and thats saying alot with sprint :rofl:)

Never had speed issues with ATT, and I am usually doing most my phone surfing on the Metra... Which I'm sure is especially challenging as it changes from tower to tower.
