Sprint 5 Out of 5 Phone Model: Iphone 4s	Stanford, Palo Alto, CA 94304	Thu Nov 10, 2011
	Had ATT last 3 years because it was the only carrier that got reception in the hospital. Usually had bars but many dropped calls that I didn't really care about because I assumed it was to be expected. Switched to Sprint 2 weeks ago. Reception everywhere I have been, including several known deadspots for both ATT and Verizon. The data is slow but does not effect anything that I do, (web browsing, streaming radio, youtube). My GF who also switched now gets coverage on 280 which she never had before. Infinitely better than ATT

Verizon 5 Out of 5 Phone Model: LG enV Touch	Arastradero Rd. / Charleston Rd., Palo Alto, CA 94306	Sat Aug 06, 2011
	Never had a dropped call in my life with Verizon (5-year customer). I laugh at the people who complain about it on their AT&T phones.

Verizon 5 Out of 5 Phone Model: Samsung SCH-T300	Ikea, Palo Alto, CA 94303	Mon Jul 12, 2004
	I have had great reception with my Verizon phone in all of East Palo Alto (and all of bay area for that matter).

AT&T 4 Out of 5 Phone Model: Nokia 8260 (TDMA)	Louis / Greer, Palo Alto, CA 94303	Tue Apr 17, 2007
	My old TDMA phone doesn't only have much better sound quality, but it also has a better signal than Cingular's GSM.

Verizon 4 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola V265	E. Charleston / Middlefield, Palo Alto, CA 94303	Sat Mar 31, 2007
	4 years with Verizon and I've never had a dropped or missed call except in two places. (1) Stanford campus, which is well-known to be terrible for every carrier but Cingular (rumor has it that Cingular has some sort of exclusive deal). (2) Inside the all-metal IKEA store off 101. My phones have been Motorola phones with extendable antennas (V265 and V120). The reviews of those phones say that they have some of the best radios available, so that may be the source of my good luck.

Sprint 4 Out of 5 Phone Model: Audiovox PPC6600 (PPC-6601 / XV6600)	Barron Park / Matadero / El Camino, Palo Alto, CA 94306	Thu Dec 21, 2006
	Reasonable reception at home, but a few houses away inside a friends house there is almost no reception

Sprint 4 Out of 5 Phone Model: Treo 650	Embarcadero Rd. / Newell Rd., Palo Alto, CA 94303	Fri Dec 08, 2006
	Never had problem indoors or outdoors. I always get 4 or 5 bars.

AT&T 4 Out of 5 Phone Model: Seimens s56	Stanford Ave. / El Camino, Palo Alto, CA 94306	Mon Jun 20, 2005
	I get a good amount of bars... The clearness of calls varies a little

AT&T 4 Out of 5 Phone Model: Nokia 6590i	Palo Alto, Palo Alto, CA 94303	Wed Jan 28, 2004
	In Palo Alto, except for certain bad spots or indoors, I rarely lose a call while driving around. Not so great at home, but enough for service.
