Default iPhone for Landout Retrieves - US

I wanted to upgrade to a smart phone, probably the iPhone 3s. Does
the iPhone and or AT&T tower network work good for retrieves? Or
would I be better off with a Blackberry or some other smart phone on
the Verizon network?

I suppose having a Spot Messenger make it a bit less critical to get a
phone call trough but after the first spot message a voice call sure
it useful.

I love my iPhone.

See ya, Dave "YO electric"


It's what happens when you push the motor lever forward in the air!
