AT&T 4G Network
 |
This phone runs on AT&T's dual-band 850/1900 MHz 4G network (UMTS/HSDPA/HSPA+), and with HSPA+ you'll experience mobile data speeds up to 4x faster than ordinary mobile broadband--up to approximately 6 Mbps (download). AT&T has deployed HSPA+ to virtually 100 percent of its mobile broadband network, which enables 4G speeds when combined with enhanced backhaul (via Ethernet or fiber).
Backhaul is one of the major pieces of a telecommunications network. Think of it as the limbs connecting AT&T's cell towers with AT&T's backbone network that provides access to the Internet.
Coming later in 2011, AT&T will deliver a second layer of 4G network called LTE (Long Term Evolution) that is even faster than HSPA+ speeds.
In areas where either AT&T's 3G or 4G network is not available, you'll continue to receive service on the AT&T EDGE network, which offers availability in more than 13,000 US cities and along some 40,000 miles of major highways.
Note: AT&T's 4G mobile broadband coverage is not available in all areas. 4G speeds delivered by HSPA+ with enhanced backhaul; availability increasing with ongoing backhaul deployment.

Samsung Cellphone, Landscape View 
Image by cobalt123 Love my new cellphone! This image shows the phone opened to the larger viewing window in the Landscape view. The two previous photos show it in the Portrait view like most cellphones. The QWERTY keyboard is much easier to use when texting, and this larger view is great for reading my email on the phone and surfing the Net. I totally recommend this phone to anyone who really wants a Treo but is in the lower budget mode. It does everything I wanted it to do and more. Here is a link with features and details. One reason I picked this unit is the ease of online use with Mobile Web 2.0 and it works great with gmail.
THE BATTLE CONTINUES!! Me playing Pachelbel's Canon on a cell phone. You can tell Jake it's his move (and he got served) here: www.youtube.com And if you want to share this on Facebook: on.fb.me :] Want this as your Ringtone? Download it for free here: Ringtone - www.mediafire.com Full Version - www.mediafire.com
