The only place in North America I have been where I didn't have coverage was Alaska. No big surprise there.
I believe there are dead spots. I just have a hard time believing it is as wide spread as this thread makes it seem.
My best friend with a Verizon phone has shitty service everywhere, so it works both ways.

We have an Itouch and like it (though it has been a POS at times) so its like the iPhone...just without the crappy phone part.
So in a way..I like the iPhone.
ATT coverage S-U-C-K-S round here.
Verizon R-U-L-E-S round here.
I can begin a call leaving my house, travel to the train station.
Take the train the 46 miles to NYC, travel through underwater tunnels and walk out to corner of Pennsylvania Station, fart, swear and then proceed to walk the 1.3 miles to work and not lose the call.
With ATT, since we can't even get a decent signal from our house, you have to travel a few miles until you get a bar or two and then stand there. If you move you end up losing the call.
Of all the iPhone folks we know only one has kept it (and ATT) because there theater is located in the only place that gets a great ATT signal and a week Verizon signal.
I beleieve you when you say you have no problems with ATT...mainly because I have no reason to doubt you since location is everything with providers.
It just so happens for a lot of people ATT sucks.
