We can answer this pretty easily by looking at AT&T Blackberries. If 3G Blackberries also have issues, then it's the network. If not, it's Apple's problem.

Anybody out there with a BB care to comment?

I've been all over SF and the bay area. No complaints with blackberry. I've never owned an iphone.

I have an LG phone with at&t, and a droid with verizon. Verizon gets where at&t can't, even if you just compare non-3g.

That's interesting, but not quite what I'm looking for. I'm trying to find out if the iPhone is a good phone on a crappy network, or a crappy phone on a crappy network.

How does your LG perform in urban areas like SF, Seattle, or NYC? How's the 3G performance in those situations?

Sorry, I am pretty short of information--mostly here in Chicago area, and don't yet have a handle on the 3g performance.
