    AT&T Begs FCC to Phase Out Landlines Completely

    In a 32-page filing with the FCC last week, AT&T asked that the requirement that it support a landline network be repealed. It's an aggressive bid to get rid of the cumbersome wall jack and move entirely to VoIP. More »

    The iPhone Is a Stone Cold Network Killer

    Being among the first of the world's networks to carry the iPhone practically guaranteed a flush few years. Also: network trouble! Take the UK's O2, whose spokespeople now seem to be reading from an apologetic PR script written by AT&T. More »

    AT&T's Warped View of the Internet

    Did you know? Unless you have a 3Mbps internet connection, you can't use Facebook. Without 12Mbps internet, you can't even email files! And just forget streaming video without at least 18Mbps internet. Welcome to the internet, according to AT&T. More »

    Is It the iPhone? Or the Network?

    It's a funny thing. Right after AT&T's CEO admits their network has problems and the iPhone's shitty reception becomes a late-night punchline, AT&T crushes our nationwide 3G test. It makes you wonder, again, is it the network, or the iPhone? More »

    Our 2009 12-City 3G Data Mega Test: AT&T Won

    Given carrier reputation and our own iPhone call drops, we were pretty surprised to discover, through careful testing in 12 markets, that AT&T's has pretty consistently the fastest 3G network nationwide, followed closely—in downloads at least—by Verizon Wireless. More »

    Leaked AT&T Android Phone Looks Unexpectedly Like a Crappier Motorola Cliq

    These leaks supposedly show AT&T's very first Android phone, either called Backflip or Enzo. Aside from the odd backwards hinge, it looks mostly like a smaller, crappier Cliq—not exactly what we expected, given their stance on Android. More »

    AT&T Dismisses Operation Chokehold as an "Irresponsible and Pointless Scheme"

    We've told you about Operation Chokehold, the attack on AT&T's network scheduled for Friday, but now AT&T has something to say about as well. They're not exactly happy and throw around words like "irresponsible," "pointless," and "nothing amusing." Ouch! More »

    Twitter user Martin Hecko says that he's received confirmation from AT&T that SMS and data service are down in San Francisco and that things will take between 24 and 48 hours to fix. Yikes!

    Brutally Honest Ads: A More Honest Luke Wilson Shills for AT&T

    Yahoo Will Divulge Pretty Much Anything for $60

    Mark the Spot iPhone App Tells AT&T Where They Suck

    In NY, AT&T's "Mark the Spot" iPhone app is going to run constantly. It lets you pinpoint precisely where AT&T's network sucked, and how—dropped call, bad data, crappy voice—and send it to them. Prepare for a tsunami. [iTunes]

    Headless Luke Wilson Continues the Great AT&T/Verizon Ad War of 2009

    AT&T Goes on the Offensive With New "Side by Side" Commercial

    Just as AT&T's injunction for the Verizon "There's a map for that" ads to be taken off-air was denied, the company's own pugnacious messages started playing. Somehow I just doubt that this commercial's gonna make Verizon cry. What d'you think? More »
