John,
I felt the same way and I hated leaving Verizon but after almost two
years I must say I have been impressed with AT&T. I had heard of the
horrible dealings with them but I pay my bills on line once they email
me and since my wife has kept Verizon we compare as we travel and I
find that sometimes she will have better reception than I then there
are times I will have much better coverage than she.
All in all I have been very satisfied.

ATT is the main reason I've not gotten an iPhone. I'm not willing to
put up with all the bs from ATT. As soon as they are available on
any carrier I will be getting one.

Hope that next year other carriers can carry the iPhone so there is
some competition on pricing. Your option now would me an iPod Touch.

You can purchase a iPod Touch if you just want to use WiFi.
The internet anywhere is a pretty powerful thing once you start
using it.
I started with a iPod touch and upgraded to a iPhone when the 3G
came out.
I was always looking for a WiFi connection where ever I went.
Now I have the internet where ever I am. I can check my mail and Rss
feeds at
break or at lunch which I am not allowed to do on the work network
connection.
Many apps don't us the 3G connection but many of the ones that I use
do. There
is a cost but the time it saves me at home is greater than the cost.
I have
the smallest plan as I don't talk on the phone more than a few
minutes a day.

Subject: [MacGroup] IPhone question
My cell phone bit the dust this week. So I'm thinking about getting a
iPhone. I want to pay any more subscription cost that I am now. So I
guess
the big question is "With the iPhone can one access the internet
from a
Airport or other wireless access point?" Do you need internet access
to take
advantage of all the apps that are available?
