I don't know what all the "trouble" is with Greenwich. But I get full 5 bars pretty much anywhere in Greenwich proper. AT&T has been excellent in this area. Much better than Verizon from what I can tell from my friends that visit. Everyone in my apartment has AT&T. It's really good reception.

2 bars, sometimes 1, occasionally 3. My phone will ring occasionally but person on the other end won't be able to hear me and call will inevitably be dropped. Texts are sometimes okay, voicemails get delivered hours late. Thought about changing carriers but everyone says service is poor in this area whatever carrier you have.

While I have had no issue with my cell reception since switching carriers and phones I would like to comment. The reason that Greenwich has so many dead spots is because the town residents do not want towers in their neighborhood. Yet again Greenwich is worried about appearances and sees itself as being better than the rest of the towns in the state. Get off of your high-horse Greenwich and let a few more towers in the area.

Had to cut plans short from Cingular and pay early termination after moving from the city because of literally 0 reception. Sprint also has no reception here per our friends who have been here. Verizon gives us great reception here.

0-1 bar with T-Mobile. Verizon and AT&T also don't work in our neighborhood. Nextel: marginal. Sprint PCS works (2-3 bars).

I'm analog roaming in my own home, barely. Digital stinks.

Verizon Digital and analog signals drop almost every call. Sometimes successful with external antenna. Tried Cingular (GSM & TDMA) and Sprint; both were even worse (no signal at all).

I tried other services, verizion, at&t. They didn't work at my area. (FYI, verizon worked great at my westchester apartment.) "06831" Zip code is infamous for its dead zone. Nextel works fine at my area. Anybody has a trouble with a cell in 06831 zip code, I'd like to recommend Nextel. No droping, missing phone calls. Nextel, however, doesn't have nice looking phones. Plus, the service plans are rather pricy, compare to other service providers.
I don't know about phone factor, though. I have a motorola i60c phone, and I haven't had any problems with it, except weight, size, and battery life. Well, it doesn't have a good battery life, nor fancy design, but it works fine anyway.
