I can confirm Travis' comments. Until a month ago, I lived in an area of 
Los Angeles that dropped my current AT&T phone down to 850MHz, and the 
Neo would not connect to the AT&T network when this happened. Once I was 
out in the open, the GTA01v4 connected to AT&T just fine.

It'd be handy to modify the firmware to indicate on the GUI which band 
the Neo/Freeruner is using, if that's possible. Not sure if that's been 
discussed before or not.
