Motorola V600
SNAFU
If it's a technical problem, then it would seem to be specific to AT&T, because the phone has been released elsewhere and grey-market and pre-release phones are being used successfully in the US. This would seem to rule out the problem being a GSM network issue, and probably rule out Motorola as the source of the technical issues. It could theoretically be some "value-add" customization that AT&T are doing for the phone. But I would expect this to be in a production state a long time before a production run is started. It's not like the guy in the lab says "OK the software is working let's box these up and put them on the shelves". If problems occur, more notice would be given to the marketing / sale...

Through it all, who is the big winner? Not you and I, the hard-working stuck with a two-year contract customer, but MOTOROLA.
And so it goes . . . .
