AT&T 0 Out of 5 Phone Model: Apple iPhone 4	Still no reception or horrible reception at best in this area. This is UNACCEPTABLE AT&T! There are a lot of visitors who come to the Palm Desert / Palm Springs area (for business and for pleasure) and this makes my stay unbearable! This sucks!

Sprint 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: blackberry	Sprint has a dead zone in this area. They are letting me out of my contract after 2months because of this. To bad because they have the most reasonable plan. The coverage has been terrible and drops all the time even in town.

AT&T 0 Out of 5 Phone Model: Apple iPhone 3GS	AWFUL! Service has always been spotty. had to move around the house to find the best signal. around Feb 1, nothing. need to go to Portola or the Desert Zoo to make a call. they said a tower was down but is now fixed... .. right, So much for those ads.

Verizon 5 Out of 5	Portola / Hovely, Palm Desert, CA 92260	Fri Apr 24, 2009
Verizon 5 Out of 5	Switched from T-Mobile... .paid early termination fee to get out of contract. Could not make or receive calls unless I went out to my driveway. Switched to Verizon and have had "0", I repeat, ZERO dropped calls in three years. Would love to have an iphone, but will never switch from Verizon... .after all, what good is a sexy phone if it can't make phone calls?

AT&T 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: treo	No signal about 65% of the time one bar the rest and calls are dropped. ATT apparently lost a lease on a tower nearby and have not been able to make it up. Even the rep at the ATT store said she loses calls whenever she drove near my house.
