Using the iPhone on AT&T

ByMike Moffit

I’m down here on the beach with my iPhone and it’s A LOT speedier then in Vermont. It feels as if I am on a mid-level DSL/Cable package. Loading web pages is nice and snappy and I get service pretty much where ever I go. Even on the interstate roads there were only a few places where I didn’t get service.

Hopefully all my web browsing, emailing and chatting will count for something when AT&T looks at my usage for the month!

I would love to try and get my iPhone tethered to my MacBook because I noticed that when you actually use Safari on your iPhone for some real web browsing it crashes. Not just a little either, within 10 minutes of just surfing the web, Safari crashed 5-6 times. Google Maps also crashes often which is really too bad. I hope some stability patches get released in the near future.

  • Our Alltop Info Center

    It can be daunting to try to stay on top of the endless flow of information available online. Among other tools, I use Google Reader, Socialite, and email alerts to stay on top of the topics that interest me. I recently started using “Alltop.com”:http://my.alltop.com/smalldogelectronics to help with this.

    Alltop says its purpose is to help you answer the question, “What’s happening?” in “all the topics” that interest you. They do this by collecting the headlines of the latest stories from the best sites and blogs that cover a topic. They then group these collections — “aggregations” — into individual web pages. Then they display the five most recent headlines of the information sources as well as their first paragraph.

    We created an Alltop so we could stay on top of the latest Apple news. Many of us make it habit to get to work and fire up our page first thing in the morning. Click here to see our Apple-news themed Alltop page, or to create your own! “Alltop.com”:http://my.alltop.com/smalldogelectronics
