A San Diego man is suing Apple and AT&T in state court for "false and misleading" advertising and "unlawful" business practices, saying the companies sold so many phones that AT&T's infrastructure is being overwhelmed and that the phones aren't performing at the speeds promised.
"Apple Computer Inc., ... and AT&T have misrepresented the speed, strength and performance of the 3G-bandwidth network," the complaint says.
The plaintiff, William J. Gillis Jr., has also asked the court to certify his lawsuit as a class action. The suit asks for an award of punitive damages to "deter and punish", an injunction forcing Apple and AT&T to tell the public about the iPhone's true capabilities and compensatory damages from the company's "ill-gotten gains."

It looks like you broke this story? Can you help me get in touch with this Mr. Gillis? I am also a San Diego based iPhone 3G user, and have had a Nokia N95 NAM (3G) and a Novatel Merlin Card on AT&Ts network for quite a while now. I should have pretty clear evidence of service degradation post iPhone 3G release, and would be interested in contributing to his suit.
Thanks,
Jeff
