3G iPhone Ad vs Real World: A performance comparison

Apple's "Unslow" 3G iPhone commercial pretends to demonstrated the performance of the device over the 3G network. To put it to the test, I took my own 3G iPhone to the heart of AT&T's coverage area...

the phone itself is very very basic with basic phone features (compaired to some of the phones out now like the android phones or palm pre). What makes the iphone "good" are the 85000 apps that make the phone more interesting. Without the apps, its just a sexy looking cell phone with standard features. did i mention it's also sexy, because being sexy sells alot of units.

The performance is nowhere near what's in the commercial. In fact, sometime I have to give up watching a YouTube vide because they just don't download (even across my home network).

But it's still a very cool device...just slow.

i think the whole twice as fast is in reference to the difference between 3g and edge. who knows, if you have a gripe, take it up with apple.
