INFINITI HAS INDICATED THIS IS BECAUSE ATT WILL DISCONTINUE SUPPORT OF THE 2G TECHNOLOGY THE SYSTEM IS DESIGNED TO USE. HOWEVER, ATT ANNOUNCED 2G SUPPORT WOULD SUNSET TIMELINE WAY BACK IN 2012 - IN THIS PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT (HTTPS://WWW.SEC.GOV/ARCHIVES/EDGAR/DATA/732717/000073271712000073/Q2_10Q.HTM).
