This year’s 3G expansion is the first part of an ongoing network upgrade in Vermont. Additional coverage enhancements, including early first quarter 3G expansions in Barre, Montpelier and Northfield are already planned for 2010.
The network extension is part of AT&T’s ongoing efforts to drive innovation and investment to deliver the benefits of smartphones and mobile broadband for customers. More smartphone customers have chosen AT&T over any other U.S. competitor, and AT&T is committed to driving continual enhancement of network capabilities to meet these customers’ ever-growing mobile broadband needs.
In addition its local 3G expansion, AT&T has integrated all legacy Unicel cell sites in Vermont into AT&T’s existing nationwide network and added a dozen new cell sites across the state. AT&T closed its acquisition of Unicel’s Vermont assets in December 2008.
