Hello I just want to ask you some question if u have any idea... so I have an iPhone with TAP (Text Access Program) plan which is unlimited data without voice plan. will it include tethering and multimedia (MMS) GA

okay at the present time with the iphone its not compatible with the multi media messaging that should be an option by the end of the summer and with tethering we're not supporting that at the present time GA

alright.. once it available, will it cover under TAP plan which is unlimited data plan q ga

with the multi media messaging it will be included with the TAP plan but with tethering we dont have any information about it GA

alright.. I think I heard that uh.. multimedia messsaging it won't be under the TAP plan and it will be 25 cent a pop q ga

to be honest with you at the present time that information hasnt been given to us i'm sure once the feature becomes available we'll be able to give you the rate GA

Yup because of too many dead spots and att were confirm that I was abuse their network, that's which is not true and that cause me to pay big deposit in next time when sign up for new service so I lost interest in att. I live in small city and att don't offers 3G but Sprint and Verizon did.

iPhone is nice but I'm more hardcore on Android phone, however Verizon don't offers until this fall so I'm sticking with BB.

Yes I do understand that. I was a BlackBerry user for 2 years before I have this iPhone.

The city that I live in, has 3G almost entire of 50 to 70 miles from here down south. I'm about 60 miles north of Dallas.

So I believe that Texas have larger 3G coverage in the U.S. because AT&T headquarter is located in San Antonio.

I'd suggest you talk to different representative at AT&T store not that 'bitch' person you talked to. My representative here in Sherman is so friendly and she so nice and knew about deaf/disability and know about TAP plan too as well. =)

I'm fine with AT&T's coverage. Aren't there better things out there to do than being on the phone 24/7? So....

Yup, I noticed it and thanks for more info, that where I met att rep over situation about deposit isn't very friendly and she's just act like not want business with me.

I have no plan to switch to att until future, I'm fully satisfied with Verizon because of zero dead spot that I had been experience.

Don't you tempt me! I would NOT take any chance being cut off the service. AT&T will cut you off if you continue use unauthorized tethering. You are on your own big risk.

I'm talking about when going on road trips/traveling, there's no point to have best coverage.
