Well, AT&T surely is not short on cash. The problem is that they have willfully lagged behind everyone else in network technology for years. Whether or not the iPhone prompts them to rethink this strategy remains to be seen. I certainly hope it does because I don't want to compromise. So either I have to wait for AT&T to get it's act together or wait for an iPhone-like clone to arrive on a more modern network. 1st one wins my $$$.
