well i doubt it would be visible to only people for Nevada. so people should also be seeing this elsewhere.

Will try this on my att sim as well, but from what i remember it shows on 2.5G even when i know for sure that i am in a 3G network.

For his phone to suddenly work on AT&T's 3G band would mean AT&T may be broadcasting on a different band or something. *shrug* It should NOT be working.
Yes I know that the 900 doesn't support AT&T 3G band, I still have AT&T smartphone plan, along with T-Mobile. I doubt highly that AT&T was ever pushing out 4.6Mb data speeds over 3G however, at least not until their recent network upgrades. I posted the pics because maybe there is some anomaly created in "upgraded areas". AT&T with 3.5G? At least not on my Motorola Q. My 900 maybe?

That or he was roaming on T-Mo? Who knows what's going on with the upgrading roll-out.

That sounds more like it.. but even then it *cant* show 3G when the network is that of ATT.

I have been told AT&T has a few 1900 band antennas here and there... if true, could they be running 3G?

T-Mobile had a 7Mb network in Philly, before the rest of their 3G areas across the country...why couldn't AT&T also have a "test network"? They are also performing 3G upgrades.

The n900 does not have a 3g radio for 1900.
