Marco Arment:
I can confirm: my AT&T iPhone shows “4G” now, and I just benchmarked the connnection at a blazing 0.63 Mbps down and 0.07 Mbps up.
Yeah, that is total bullshit. AT&T has been doing this on Android phones for months, but Apple had been keeping it real — 3G label only. Now it looks like Apple caved and let AT&T call their really shitty 3G service “4G” in iOS 5.1.
I am disappoint. Total crap.
If, like me, you saw Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol on IMAX this weekend, you saw the prologue to The Dark Knight Rises. And, like me, you probably couldn’t understand half of what was said.
No clue if this was an IMAX extreme sound issue or if this was the way director Christopher Nolan wanted it. But — above is a link to the full script of the prologue.
Obviously, this is a big (though short) SPOILER ALERT for anyone who hasn’t yet seen the clip. So procede with caution. But if you have seen the footage already, you’ll probably want to read this — it makes a lot more sense now.
