Binary Brew

This sucks.  No Pandora for me on my ride to work today.  No email once I got to the office and no way to post to my blog via my iPhone. I called ATT and they confirmed that the Data networks for EDGE and 3g are down and should be up in the next two hours.  My outage started at 7am. Its now 845am and its still down and they dont plan on getting it back for at least two more hours. For a 300.00 phone and 120.00 a month for the service, I really expect much more reliability.  5 or 10 mins down every now and then is acceptable. Hours of down time during peak usage times?  Not. What can you do.  ATT and iPhone have me hooked.  I cant take the phone to Verizon so I can have a team of hard hat wearing people following me around ensuring that my network is working. So I guess I have to suffer with a very expensive iPod for a few more hours.
