9to5mac.com/AT-T-850MHz-NYCAT&T announced today a substantial strengthening of its 3G mobile broadband wireless network where it has deployed spectrum in the 850 MHz band across large portions of metro New York City, Long Island and New Jersey. That should mean that New York iPhone users like myself should be able to make calls without getting dropped every few minutes and shouldn't have trouble getting data in the largest city in the US. They've also added additional bandwidth pipes to those 3G towers as promised in an announcement in June.
The 850MHz band is especially effective inside and around buildings, something New York has plenty of. Are any of you New Yorkers getting more love from your iPhones as of today?
