I also have a iPad with the same plan and it works great on 3G.
I've read about people complaining about their phone connections but my problem is with my 3G data not losing bars.
Please let me know what you think

I take it this is on a iPhone 4? If so i havent had any of those issues. My speeds have actually increased over what i get on my old 3GS.

Yes it is. I have noticed that when going to a web-sight it will linger for a while about20 seconds then change the page quickly. On E it starts quicly but takes a bit to finish loading, on wifi it flies.

You're not alone! Many others, including myself, are having the same issue. I've been working with ATT since I got the new iphone and it's not the network. When I spoke with Apple they said they've been having hardware issues with the phone and that I'd need to exchange it at my local store. Best part: I probably won't be able to exchange it due to short supply. I'm starting to wish I had never upgraded...

I think I found the remedy, last night I plugged my IP4 into my mac and let it connect to itunes and did a OS restore ( basically the same thing I would do with Windows when I would buy a PC) and as of now I am having no problems on 3G. It is lighning fast but I will not be too convinced until it stays for the whole day. Try it you have nothing to lose.

I have the same problem. My AT&T wireless card just CRAWLS sometimes. I've actually heard someone mentioning that they have this problem. It's infuriating. When I used to have a Verizon wireless network card, it was much, much faster.
