I get 1 bar reception with 3G service enabled... turning 3G off gives me 2-3 bars. To make a call without dropping or having the other party complain that they can't understand me, I have to walk out of my house and into the street. The local AT&T store rep tells me I just have to live with it and that dead zones are a limitation on the technology. Tried a 3G Microcell for $150, but I just returned it after 3 weeks due to technical problems. When it worked, I did get 5 bars, but mostly it created more problems and prevented reception of what little cell tower signal that I did get. Did I mention that I don't like AT&T?

1 bar coverage in my house. Lots of dropped calls. I have to call people back on my landline.

Never had a problem with either Cingular or now with AT&T here in the desert. And the AT&T coverage is solid all the way up the coast to Seattle.

Reception is hit or miss up here. Sometimes I pick up my phone and have 5 bars, other times it's 1 and I drop calls. Cingular is worse all the way up here at the very top of the cove, so I guess Verizon is preferable. Otherwise, Verizon coverage is excellent everywhere in the valley that I have been.

Can't use Cingular at home. Meanwhile, Verizon has three bars at home. Cingular works good most other places but am ready to switch to Verizon so I can use it at home.

I get poor choppy coverage around my house and I am ready to switch, I am not shure to which company though.
