Meet Seth the Blogger Guy, AT&T's Answer to Angry iPhone Owners

Mac news from outside the reality distortion field

I certainly appreciate it when AT&T responds instead of just sitting in silence.

I also can't imagine the amount of work/money that goes into play here trying to keep up with the ever increasing demand that WE users put on their network.

However, here's the flip side of this. As an iPhone user I pay a premium in data fees that are not imposed on other AT&T phones. That fee went up with the introduction of the iPhone 3G. People that use other phones on AT&T pay less AND have MMS today. So basically AT&T is charging iPhone owners more money for less features. Granted I know that no one is breaking/twisting my arm to buy/pay for an iPhone. The choice was mine. However, it just makes videos like this fall on my deaf ears because it's not like they said "hey, our network isn't up to par yet. So we're gonna charge iPhone users less than everyone else until it is!" Instead iPhone users are funding this network upgrade and not seeing the benefits of it (yet).

Also since AT&T has said that the MMS features will be included in the data plans we already pay for, again we're paying for something already that we don't get to use.

Actually, I've seen this video in articles posted on several Mac news sites.

Thanks, AT&T, for nothing. There are over twice as many Blackberry users, not to mention many more owners of non-smartphones, who can do MMS and tethering *today*. My old Motorola phone, that was just a flip phone, could tether. Yet for some reason you have to "realign" your radios to make iPhones work with this tech? What a load of bull.

Are we supposed to be impressed because "Seth" is supposedly a "blogger"?

And Seth - see a doctor about that head tilt, buddy, you look like you need help.
