Took forever to bring up the page, and the download kept failing. I decided to try it on my Android phone (AT&T), and the site came up almost immediately. Huge difference in speed, in favor of AT&T.

Of course, the download failed on Android, too, because AT&T sucks and doesn’t let you download anything that isn’t from the app market. But at least it was a much quicker “fail” than was the Verizon experience.

From my perspective, they both suck and this whole “smart phone” phenomena is overrated.
