EDGE/3G outage in LA area?

Just a note to you guys on the "left coast" We had the same outage in the North East last week. When service was restored a few hours later many people myself included saw better edge and 3g service. Maybe this is ATT's way of fixing their 3g issues or maybe just a fluke. After the outage my edge service was pinning the dial and my 3g which was always terrible was much better. However today the service looks like it was "PRE-OUTAGE"
I'm interested to see if the guys/gals on the west coast are seeing better performance with 3G now....i'm on the east coast and have seen a major improvement with 3G since the "outage" last week!
OK before the outage yesterday, I was getting 1.40 mbps or higher all the time. After the outage, I've only been getting around 0.80 mbps all day today.
I didn't notice any outage and I don't see any difference in performance; Edge works great and 3G reception is almost nonexistent.
I'm here on the Paramount lot in Hollywood and I've noticed better bars. I now get 5 bars in my office, whereas I only used to get 3. I am hitting about 1mbps on 3G tests.
Google maps is still reporting me as being 2 blocks south from where I really am though!

Makes me WANT an outage now!
Actually you're not going to get a good GPS read if you're in your office.
