AT&T network down in L.A. and other rants

Argh! Tried to make a few calls and nothing. Either "call failed" or "network busy"... This sucks, it's been down for about an hour...

Before I knew it was a network issue, I thought it was my phone... It does do weird things from time to time - enough to piss me off. Soooo, After dialing a number 20 times and finally get through, I get a bit irritated, then I need to make another call and nothing. Full bars, go upstairs, where I can overlook the Valley, still nothing...

In a momentary lapse of reason, I smack the phone on my coffee table... Whoops, now the screen is white and the time until call failure picks up. I wasn't looking to upgrade to an iPhone today, bit it was in the plans.... Off to the store - Guy tells me the network is down - great I just broke my phone and it was an ATT issue. Oh well, while I'm here, I guess we should talk iPhone - I'm sorry, you are not eligible for an upgrade. WTF? I have never been eligible for a phone upgrade! I have been a loyal ATT/Cingular/Pac Bell customer for years.

Dammit! I want my iPhone and I don't want to pay full retail for it!

I'm .

End of post, but I will still be "ranting" around my house. Maybe I'll break more stuff!
