Apple and AT&T Sued, Again, Over 3G

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Friday March 20, 2009 @05:32AM from the overly-litigious dept.

Macworld is reporting that Apple and AT&T are being sued, again, for the lack of delivery on their 3G network. This follows a long line of other lawsuits in San Jose, San Diego, Alabama, Florida, Texas, and New York "The lawsuit charges the companies with Negligence, Breach of Express Warranty, Breach of Implied Warranty of Merchantability, Unjust Enrichment, Negligent Misrepresentation, Violation of the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act and Other Similar State Statutes, and Breach of Contract. Dickerson is seeking to force Apple and AT&T to correct its labeling and advertising, as well as to recover compensatory, statutory and punitive damages."

I have to agree. If the phone doesn't work take it back get a refund and cancel the contract.

Is there a "-1, Clueless" option for moderators? If not, there should be.

There is no "connection" between EDGE and 3G. Zero. Zilch. Nada. None, at all. Two TOTALLY separate technologies. One does not require the other and vise-versa.

Odds are your wireless device (Not an iPhone I might add because you cannot disable EDGE in the iPhone) was falling back on the EDGE data connection due to saturation or unavailability of the 3G network.
