 AT&T has posted the following to set the record straight about Verizon Wireless false and misleading ads. To Our Customers: |
- AT&T's wireless data coverage reaches 303 million people – or 97% of the U.S. population, where they live and work. Our data coverage consists of 3 different types of technology:
- 3G. 233 million people or 75% of the population are covered by AT&T's 3G network, the nation's fastest.
- EDGE. 301 million people or more than 96% of the population are covered by EDGE.
- With both 3G and EDGE coverage, customers can access the Internet, send e-mail, surf the Web, stream music, download videos, send photos, text, talk and more. The only difference – with some data applications, 3G is faster than EDGE
- GPRS. Covers 303 million people, allowing you to talk, text, e-mail and access basic websites optimized for wireless.
