I'm in Central CA, right between Fresno and Bakersfield.  Two towns that currently have 3G.  Verizon has us covered.  AT&T does not.  This will likely weigh heavy when it comes time to make a decision for my new phone and contract.

I live in Wichita, KS, yeah, Kansas, but its the largest city in the state. 50th biggest city in the country, around 600,000 people live here, yet AT&T has yet to give us a 3G network. Verizon has one here, and Sprint has one here, since they kinda are down the street in relative terms, Overland Park, KS. Lol<br><br>AT&T has a very small number of users here, I guess that could be the reason, but had it not been for the iPhone, I would have left to another carrier long ago. I mean, 3G is already on its way out as an old technology, and AT&T is just now getting on to it.

Ironic this is still going on after the name has almost changed back. That puts the company about 3 years behind, basically starting from nowhere. But the build out is going to were the majority of users are at the time, so not all major areas in general have it.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[egoviri]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2008 3:29AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on AT&amp;T's 2008 plans include 80 new cities with 3G, HSUPA network]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/02/06/atandts-2008-plans-include-80-new-cities-with-3g-hsupa-network/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/02/06/atandts-2008-plans-include-80-new-cities-with-3g-hsupa-network/</guid><description><![CDATA[Not really. The merger of the old ATTWS and Cingular was completed long ago. You're also wrong that they had to change bands. The only band GSM uses in the US are the 850 and 1900 bands, which both companies used. It was a matter of getting all the towers and account systems merged into one. ATTWS didn't really push hard with the UMTS because before they were bought by Cingular, NTT DoCoMo was the majority shareholder, and ATTWS became to go down the hole revenue wise so NTT dumped the UMTS project, and wrote them off, eventually to be bought by Cingular. The real reason they are slow on the rollout is, like Fadi Alsaid said, the incompatibility with the TDMA air interface used with GSM, and the WCDMA air interface used with UMTS and HSPA.<br><br>See what a little research does? :P]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[RC]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 8th 2008 2:51PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on AT&amp;T's 2008 plans include 80 new cities with 3G, HSUPA network]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/02/06/atandts-2008-plans-include-80-new-cities-with-3g-hsupa-network/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/02/06/atandts-2008-plans-include-80-new-cities-with-3g-hsupa-network/</guid><description><![CDATA[the reason why att is behinde sprint and verizon on 3G deployment is the technology it self. for verizon ad sprint its just an upgrade to an existing technology, but for att it is a whole new technology that they have to bulid. its more expensive and more time consuming. on the bright side, when its time to go 4G or LTE, att will do just an upgrade to HSPA and verizon have to bulid out the LTE network. makeing att faster in deployment. on the other hand sprint will deploy WIMAX...wait...maybe not..wait maybe they will....who knows what sprint will rol out for 4G. i am staying with att 3G network for now because the idea of having voice and data seperated is just what i need. sorry for spelling errors. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Fadi Alsaidi]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 7th 2008 2:13PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on AT&amp;T's 2008 plans include 80 new cities with 3G, HSUPA network]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/02/06/atandts-2008-plans-include-80-new-cities-with-3g-hsupa-network/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/02/06/atandts-2008-plans-include-80-new-cities-with-3g-hsupa-network/</guid><description><![CDATA[June 15th 2008, we just got  confrimation  West Virginia will have 3G , If you have any questions email me<br><br>ts5684.att@gmail.com ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Tim_From_AT&T]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 8th 2008 2:22PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on AT&amp;T's 2008 plans include 80 new cities with 3G, HSUPA network]]></title><link>http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/02/06/atandts-2008-plans-include-80-new-cities-with-3g-hsupa-network/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://mobile.engadget.com/2008/02/06/atandts-2008-plans-include-80-new-cities-with-3g-hsupa-network/</guid><description><![CDATA[Any chance the stretch of area north of Jamboree on the 261 in Irvine can get better 3G coverage?
