It’s official. All you IPHONE users might actually get what you paid for:
AT&T Mobility today unveiled its network expansion plans for Virginia in the coming year. They include rolling out its third generation (3G) mobile broadband network in new communities including Suffolk as well as Charlottesville, Staunton, Waynesboro, Harrisonburg, Lynchburg, Danville, Roanoke, Salem, and Blacksburg in western Virginia and in Winchester in northern Virginia.
Now if they could only fix all those horrible outages.

Still won’t make me buy a telephone that costs 120 bucks a month… And I’m an apple guy….
Oh Snap!
Thanks for posting this.
@1 Understood. I don’t understand the need to have fast internet at the hip, everywhere you go, and I have been dealing with internet related shit, and computers for a long long time now. Maybe I’m just burned out, but sometimes you just need to get away from that shit. I don’t have a laptop either. If I want to use a computer I go to a desk.
@3: THIS. My new phone is gonna be simple as shit.
Shen’s new phone ?
I have a nice phone cause my job gives me one. It’s good for email which is a simple function anyway, that’s about it. I actually miss the regular phones with physical buttons.
Too complicated D… it’s more like this
@7: I only use my phone for texting and alram clock. Those cans won’t work.
I actually miss the regular phones with physical buttons.
I know right? My phone has metaphysical buttons. Last time I tried to send a text, I got a reply from a dead relative. Creepy.
Shen…If you want to text with the Can-o-phone, you just write down your text message on a little scrap of paper and walk over and put it in the can at the other end. It’s fucking brilliant.
@8 An alram clock? pray tell, what do you use that for?
You use it to wake up dyslexics.
Oh Dieter…. isn’t that a case of the pot calling the kettle balck?
@12 and drunk dyslexics.
@13 indeed it is Floozy, I’m in dire need of such a clock.
I cant wait for it i have the Iphone wich does not cost 120 bucks a month its only 65 with a job (15% discount depending on where you work) and 500 text added. The purpose of having 3G is not only faster internet but faster downloads like music and data. For instance the Iphone is a MP3 player so faster music downloads is a good thing. But its all in what you are looking for if you are a simple person get a simple phone and be happy if you like gadgets and advanced tech get the higher end phones and be happy. No need to dog tech just because it’s not for you or you just cant afford it and are bitter.
Well, I hope this helps you decide on whether to buy into 3G… I’m in Savannah and we are having city-wide major issues with our 3G service (dropped calls, calls not connecting, voicemail lagging, etc) … GET THIS… after 6 hours (yes, 6 hours) on the phone with AT&T the supervisor I was finally connected to said that her only other advice was to “GET RID OF MY IPHONE 3G AND GO BACK TO MY OLD IPHONE that only uses the edge…” This was not the answer I was looking for… I hope you guys in Texas get things fixed… the best of luck!
And I thought it was just me that was shite at US geography. I’m off to Southfork to have lunch with Miss Ellie and that stunted blonde chick.
Flooze, where did all of these hicks come from? Is it just me or is cVillain being inundated with morons?
@philbert…..C’vill has always been inundated with liberal a-hole morons….I don’t believe it’s the hicks you have to worry about.
does any know when this is gonna be implemented?
The latest word is that it should be done by August.
