We only get reception in the house if we're pressed against the front door. Otherwise we have to stand outside to use our phones.

No reception inside or outside house. Reliable reception ends at Valero gas station. As reception gets worse, phone will ring, and you can answer, but the line is effectively dead. No voice is heard either way.

The Sprint Treo 650 works all over Marin (even semi-reliably in some of the Fairfax area) but not relaibly in Santa Venetia area. I still have to have a land line at home, but I have been quite pleased with Sprint service coverage outside of my neighborhood. Their "Fair and Flexible" plan is neither fair nor flexible. I am looking for a better overall plan for Santa Venetia area and Marin in general.

I am using an old Nokia phone from AT&T (Cellular One). Reception is great, unfortunately Cingular is terminating the old AT&T system and I have to choose another plan, phone and perhaps a carrier. After reading your posts I am really puzzled- it looks that there is no good carrier here in Marin at all. I guess my best bet is to do a survey of the neighbors. I am planning to get a RAZR phone.

Generally very good reception now with T-Mobile; a few dead spots in the usual Marin areas (much of Fairfax, upper Sleepy Hollow).

Marinwood / Lucas Valley / Miller Creek, San Rafael, CA 94903 Wed Aug 30, 2006

No reception in our house or on our block, at the pool, or at the park. As far as I know, only Nextel or Sprint works here.

Lots of hills / valleys here in San Rafael area. I live in Ignacio / Novato area, but drive a lot in San Rafael, Larkspur, etc. I get 4 or 5 bars in my house and in all neighborhoods. Everywhere in Marin County, actually. Very pleased.

No service at all until I get to 101. My wife had a Verizon SP and her phone -- same as mine -- gets reliable reception. I am looking to change and hear very good things about Verizon. I would be interested in comments from users deep in Lucas Valley
