Folks picking up their brand-new iPhones from Wal-Marts in the Midwest were unpleasantly surprised yesterday by something no cell phone user wants to see - no signal. But at least AT&T users can be comforted by knowing that their phones aren't broken. While the network isn't back to 100%, AT&T tells us, they're working on it. Here's the official word from an AT&T spokesman:

"At about 9:30 a.m. CST on Sunday, Dec. 28, a power failure impacted an AT&T facility in Bloomfield, MI. This situation has resulted in intermittent disruption of mobile services for customers in some Midwest states. Backup power has been restored, and a substantial portion of the impacted equipment was back in service as of Sunday afternoon. Virtually all service traffic is running normally today. AT&T continues work to restore a small number of local cell sites in Michigan that were impacted by local weather and power outages. This work will continue until all local service is fully restored."
