iPhone 3G service wide area outage / interruption

June 18, 2009: iPhone 3G and Edge network went completely down at approx 1:00 AM EST. I called AT&T Support first thing this morning (approx 9am EST) and they reported being UNAWARE of any issues but would call me back shortly after investigating. I received a follow-up call at approx 10:30am EST and the support tech admitted to a "WIDE AREA OUTAGE reaching all over Northern Florida".

There is much suspicion amongst iPhone 3G users that AT&T purposefully disengaged service to allow greater service response from iPhone 3GS users thereby showing off their new "2x faster" network.

Interestingly, my fellow colleagues who are also on AT&T?s 3G network ... using a non-iPhone device ... have not experienced an interruption in 3G service all the while.

Anyone else seeing this issue, within or outside of Florida?
