Iphone face off..its official. AT&T'S network is faster

AT&T iPhone beats Verizon in nationwide 3G speed tests - CNN.com

Okay, not to be a troll...

but what in the hell does this have to do with the HTC Inspire 4G? Really.

 

[stancrazy]

Nothing except for the fact that the HSPA+ network has been debated in this forum in multiple threads.

The Inspire is an AT&T device.

There have been many anti AT&T posts and threads here stating that the AT&T data is fake/inferior/slow etc.

I would think that relates to people using the Inspire on at&t's network.

If you don't see that connection..you are free not to post here...

 

[Loiselle]

This thread belongs in the AT&T discussion thread. Not here. Regardless if it has been discussed as a byproduct of other threads... this does not needs it's own dedicated thread here.

You can find the AT&T discussion thread right here.

 

[stancrazy]

Doesn't look like anyone has posted this yet in the general AT&T thread so a Mod might choose to move it. (I don't think i can move a thread).

On the other hand...some of the inspire owners might want to discuss network news as well.

Has someone appointed you as the thread topic Czar?

 

[Loiselle]

No, no one has. I just find it ridiculous that people don't do proper research before they post. Makes a mess of these specialized forums when people post where it really doesn't totally apply.

Yes, the phone is on AT&T. But would you post AT&T's network beating out Verizon's network in the Captivate thread?

Let me refer you to a quote from this forums zero tolerance policy.

General Conduct:

Admittedly, I'm probably a little more anal about this topic than some. I have very little tolerance for uncalled for disrespect. With that said.. read on. Please treat other members with respect. These forums were put together for Android fans to come together and help each other, collaborate and discuss in a positive way – not bash on someone because you don't like their idea, or because they don't share the same views as you. We are big into the free speech idea here. So you're free to say what you think – but do it in a constructive, positive, 'add to the conversation' kinda way – not the condescending 'I don't like what you're saying so you suck and also, are a bitch' kinda way. We encourage mature debates – discourage childish arguments.

Also while the search feature on forums is great, and hopefully will be utilized - if someone comes here and asks a question, either answer it or don't. If you're going to suggest the search feature, be polite about it. Nothing irks me more than when I go to a forum, (and use the search!), then ask a question because I want some one on one with my problem, and get a simple "Use the search." reply. Suggesting it is encouraged, but don't withhold the answer because they don't.

Please don't make pointless rude/nonconstructive replies. "This thread sucks," etc.

Also - do not take it upon yourself to play Grammar Nazi. If someone's post is literally so bad you cannot understand it, fine - ask them to rephrase. But do not nitpick and ruin threads just to show how high-n-mighty-like you can be.

Based on what you quoted, I stand in the wrong. Admittedly.

But there is no need to try and hammer home your point when what you posted about the network doesn't belong in this forum. It belongs in the AT&T forum, like I pointed out above.

I'm leaving this thread because I don't feel the need to argue any longer. I made my point clearly.

Thanks there are a few other topics here that are not 100% informational (such as people posting that they are "excited" or "in love" with their phones)...please go slam these members (with rude comments) for having threads that are not helpful to people with questions (because they are mostly "chit-chat" after all) and there for..(by your strict views), should not be posted here EITHER.

I sent a request to the Mod:

This started out as a fun thread and was pretty much RUINED by a forum member. I would clean it up myself but i cant delete out other members posts. Please clean up and or move at your discretion to the general AT&T thread. Thank you

Ok guys put your pissing sticks away. Although the Op placed this in the wring section I for one am glad he did because the insane data bashing in this forum is old already.

I loved seeing this article so much I'm rubbing it into my friend's faces who praise Verizon for being "so much faster" than AT&T on Facebook.

Moved to the AT&T section, where it is on-topic.

I put my phone (Captivate w/custom rom) against my brothers Incredible (stock froyo). We compared speedtests (inside a funeral home). My d/l speed was the same as his (about 1.7). That goes to show the differrence between hspa+ and verizon edge.

What? Verizon doesn't have edge and there is no way the speeds were the same

They were, I was shocked.
