June 29, 2007 (Computerworld) -- Users reported substantial speed increases in AT&T's data network last night and today, fueling speculation that long-rumored infrastructure upgrades have paid off just as the iPhone goes on sale.

AT&T wireless customers using non-Apple cell phones began citing a bump in throughput on the EDGE-based data network last night, posting test results online at places such as Howard Forums. Most reported speeds of 200Kbit/sec., more than double of earlier speeds.
