Dave, I'm getting reports of widespread AT&T/Cingular EDGE Network failures today. My own EDGE phone has been unable to connect to the network since very early this morning. I do not have independent confirmation regarding the overall scope of the problem (more info below). I find it interesting that this would occur the first business day after the iPhone activation blitz. As an AT&T customer who depends on this data functionality of my phone, to say I am displeased is an understatement. *** More reports just in. At least the Central and Western U.S. is apparently affected (including here in L.A.) Some people are speculating that only iPhones are involved. This is not the case -- I most definitely do not have an iPhone. Thank you for using the new AT&T. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein lauren () vortex com or lauren () pfir org Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 http://www.pfir.org/lauren Co-Founder, PFIR - People For Internet Responsibility - http://www.pfir.org Co-Founder, IOIC - International Open Internet Coalition - http://www.ioic.net Founder, CIFIP - California Initiative For Internet Privacy - http://www.cifip.org Founder, PRIVACY Forum - http://www.vortex.com Member, ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: http://lauren.vortex.com ------------------------------------------- Archives: http://v2.listbox.com/member/archive/247/=now RSS Feed: http://v2.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/247/ Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
