Martin, don't hate the playa... hate the game. I was on AT&T for years... GSM sucks in the US and you know it. Not to pile on, but the only thing inferior to that networks' signal quality is its customer service. Couldn't give a rip about video calling. You let me know when YOU place your next such call... in the meantime, I'll be using my EVDO Rev. A data services later today...
It's not just about video calling, it's about the fact that I can do voice and data at the same time. So while you're having to tell the person on the other end of the line that you'll have to call them back to look that thing up that you need, I'll be chattin on my bluetooth surfin HSDPA (which I can get up to 7.2 mbps vs. 3.6 on EVDO rev. A) while talkin to my homies. No need to hang up, I can just keep on talkin. And the fact that you think you're signal quality is so much better just shows YOUR ignorance.
But of course video calling actually IS a big thing which many countries around the world have had for a long time. I'm sure, no I KNOW you'd be changing your tune if Verizon had it. Oh and speaking of which, good luck taking your CDMA phone to anywhere in Europe and pretty much any country around the world. Oh that's right you can't, you have to buy the Blackberry 8830.
Damn Martin, you have cut me to the quick! Your startling revelations have finally enabled me to see things clearly. Now I get it, the next time I find myself in Luxembourg desperately trying to surf the web, while wishing I was also simultaneously talking to the all the people back in the US that also don't have video calling, I'll curse the heavens and wish I was on AT&T!!! Well played Sir! 'Till then, I'll just have to struggle along with the other 2/3's of the U.S. population that live in areas covered by EVDO Rev. A NOW. Oh, and the next time YOU do "anything" at speeds anywhere close to the "paper" maximums you claim… will be the first time. But hey, keep dreamin'! I know you will at least have plenty of time to do that… between dropped calls.
“While it's not exactly punching it out with the heavyweights in multi-room audio, the Mint Studio does certainly hold its own with many similarly-priced iPod docks out there.â€
