I'm on t-mobile. I think it's just as good, if not better, than verizon out here. But then again, I live in the Los Angeles area... it's kind of hard to NOT get coverage. I made a trip all the way up to Washington a few months back. Only lost reception when I went through a few hundred miles of NOTHING.

I have CellularOne/Dobson. which is a regional provider around here. Works pretty good they have a non-compete agreement with Cingular so the coverage map is exactly the same. Oh yeh and I pay 5 bux a month for unlimited calling, txt, mms and data usage.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I have used quite a few companies. However, you need to take in account that mergers have created compleately different companies from six to eight years ago. Recently, my wife and I have used Sprint and Verizon. In my own opinion, Sprint beats it hands down. The pricing is better (especially if you look at texting or internet usage) and there customer service was great. I dealt with them on multiple occassions for two years and had no complaints on how they handled it. For the past year, I have used only Verizon. The only benefit I found was the in network. Nearly every friend I have used verizon. My DSL, home phone, and cellular are all verizon now. On multiple times, it took over twenty minutes of hold and two to three call backs to clear up there mistakes. It took three months to get them to correct a constant roaming charge on a nation wide contract. That was very annoying. As for coverage, it is all going to deepend on your area. Verizon has the largest coverage, but the sprint nation wide coverage seemed to be better. I traveled from Indiana to michigan. My honeymoon was in the virgin islands. Sprint had service in every area that verizon did and surpassed them in the virgin islands and upper michigan. In fact, verizon wouldn't hold a signa in almost all of michigan. I had two verizon phones and one sprint. The sprint very rarely went out. Needless to say, when my contract is up I will go back to sprint.

I nearly forgot to mention the phones. No matter what company you use, pay for a better phone. Every free phone with all companies had poor reception compared to higher end models.

I USED to have Nextel, then I switched to Verizon. Verizon wins hands down! Nextel had horrible reception. I think that if Nextel had the awesome coverage that Verizon had, they would own all, but I don't see that happening in a very long time. lol... The only thing I dislike about Verizon is that they nickle and dime you with EVERYTHING! NO FREE GAMES and NO UNLIMITED texting package. Sure they have their IN package which allows you unlimited VZW to VZW text and picture messages, but that's only useful if you have a lot of people with Verizon. My friend and his girlfriend both have Verizon with the unlimited text and picture messages. He really utilizes that IN package and the unlimited VZW to VZW calling.

To proove how nice the coverage is with Verizon, I hooked my cell phone up to my laptop and used it as a modem while travelling to and from Pennsylvania. It was the weekend, so no minutes were used. Not one time did my data call drop. Sure, I settled for 14.4kbps, but you'd do the same on a road trip with family... ha

i have ****ing sucular, i mean cingular. i think i am going verizon or nextel when my plan is up.

verizon > sprint > cingular > nextel

then u have the small guys with shitty *** coverage like tmobile, qwest, and the boondocks carriers like cell one and bs.

sprint is closing in on verizon very fast. verizon is pulling out of radioshack so they are loosing the largest retail distributor for wireless and cingular is moving in january 1st. so once that happens, sprint will be the top dog, and cingular will be trying to increase coverage and service to that of sprint. its gonna take awhile though.

i can always tell a cingular customer when they walk in my store talking on their phone, because their call drops //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

i am a sprint user, btw
