Anyone else on the east end of STX having cell phone problems? I haven't looked at my phone all afternoon and just now, at 5:15 PM, noticed I have no bars.

I turned my phone off and on and had signal when it came back on. But I have can't access AT&T. Sometimes the bars disappear so I ASSume they're working on the system.

I just posted too. I guess the answer is AT&T is down on STX.

I note broadband still works. When the att outages approach 8 months as innovative routinely does for me, then (and only then) I'll share that wish.

Since BroadbandVI WiFi is still working I just fire up Skype on the iPhone.

AT&T's network engineer based on Puerto Rico said it was the result of a commercial power failure. Maybe AT&T's generator was out of fuel after all the recent power outages.
