AT&T fires back with latest iPhone ad: simultaneous voice and web more important than you think (video)

We get it AT&T, your iPhone can do voice and data at the same time, and Verizon’s can’t. Big Red’s Test Man proved that calls aren’t always doomed to drop on the iPhone, but AT&T’s firing right back and saying how you could be doomed in certain social situations, like forgetting to make a dinner reservation on your anniversary. Props for creativity here, but now that both sides have fired a shot across the other’s bow, can’t we all just get along ? Yeah, probably not.

T-Mobile’s upcoming HSPA+ WWAN offerings get leaked, comical codenames revealed

It’s been a hot minute since the folks at T-Mobile have introduced a new USB WWAN modem, but if the document above is to be believed, that could be changing in short order. As the Jet ages, it looks like a few others — codenamed Kitty Hawk, Washington and Wayne — could be swooping in to take things from here. The former is rumored to hit shelves in March, offering HSPA+ speeds of 21Mbps and the ability to solve most of the world’s problems. As for Washington? That’ll be T-Mob’s first USB modem to offer HSPA+ speeds approaching 42Mbps , and if all goes well, this guy will also splash down next month. Moving on, there’s a pair of Waynes that’ll serve as the carrier’s first mobile hotspots, enabling five WiFi-enabled devices to mooch off of a 21Mbps (Lil’ Wayne) or 42Mbps (Big Wayne) connection. Here’s hoping T-Mobile does the smart thing and sticks with the codenames — the marketing exec in us just knows it’s the right thing to do.
