AT&T plans to shut down entire 2G network by 2017

[zephxiii]

Think about all those folks who bought a BetaMax player.

Eletronic devices of today, TV's, computers, wireless devices, GPS, all seem to be useless in bout 2-3 years. Same holds true for wireless infrastructure technology

Or HD-DVD or whatever it was called!!!

Ooh so Cingular orange...even though I specifically mentioned at&t blue tdma....which was not allowed. You never made it clear in your post and wasn't what I was discussing.

3 second Google search my friend.

You definitely need to get out more, or at least get laid.

This is a good move by att with four and a half years warning being plenty of time in my opinion. I'll miss my old phones but look forward to new technology etc

Should you still be able to use your 1974 television with today's cable and satellite?

I dunno if you believe I SHOULD be able to, but you absolutely can. Any NTSC TV ever sold in America can work with cable and satellite services today, since they'll provide you with an RF modulator to put the service on VHF channel 3

Wayyyyy off topic....and frankly none of your buisness. I've already explained how easy it is to google. Don't get nasty because you are wrong according to your own post

You called me out on something that wasn't true so I corrected.

And obviously you didn't read right because I said they are doing it better this time around (not forcing you off your plans)

AT&T (then Cingular), did not allow AT&T Blue TDMA customers to keep their plans, and charged a junk "legacy fee" before shutdown. This was bad and unfair...This what I said, and its true, as confirmed by yourself, several years back. No matter how hard you try to derail.

....Moving on:

This time, AT&T is allowing users to keep their 2G plans, selling compatible and similar equipment. This is fair. I give AT&T points now, they seem better about grandfathering, and more than Verizon (no forcing new users to only have "share plans).

Nowadays I feel like att has been treating me much better than vz so I def agree with that
