I carry both a Blackberry on EDGE with T-Mobile and an iPhone on 3G with ATT. When around San Francisco there's no question T-Mobile's EDGE gives me much better coverage and throughput than the iPhone. Sad but very consistently true, every day it's the same way. In fact with T-Mobile rolling out 3G in this area, their EDGE performance seems to have gotten much better too. Guess they upgraded their backbone and both EDGE and 3G benefited. Regards, Joe
