AT&T Data Network overload?

I thought the reason we have been wating for MMS is due to overload on the AT&T network? See below

We're waiting for ATT to upgrade and manage their data network. It's VERY possible their overhaul is for ALL the things AT&T will be using it for. Believe me - this deal has been underway for a long time. It didn't just pop up. AT&T wasn't just upgrading their networks for the iPhone. That would be naive. If they're spending the $$ to upgrade - it's because they see what the potential pipeline is down the road.

That talks about the Nuvi getting AT&T 3G support. However, a Nuvi is not that much of a blimp on AT&T data usage as an iPhone is.
