This is sure getting entertaining to watch AT&T and Verizon duke it out commercial after commercial. Today we have the latest AT&T commercial to show you and this one is all about download speed. It seems AT&T has given up on the fact that Verizon has covers more of the U.S. in terms of 3G and is now concentrating on the claim they have the faster 3G speeds.

We’ve said it before and we will say it again, AT&T just does not seem to get it and they are obviously ignoring most of your comments as a significant amount of our readers feel they should be spending all of these advertising dollars on some more 3G towers…

• CNN News [$1.99 - iTunes link]: "It's really cool having the news in your pocket."
