Cingular is one of the greatest because in many areas there are signal. Many of my friends have Verizon, T-mobile, and Sprint where they get mad because there is no signal.

Nextel customer. Since Nextel / Sprint Merger - can receive emails, receive calls in (as messages only), but cannot call out. Message says "system busy - try later." This has been happening for the past 2-3 days. Before merger, reception was perfect, no problems ever.

Didn't work. I left Sprint and never looked back. Much happier with T-Mobile and Cingular service.

I cannot use my Sprint cell phone at home, in the university dorm, or in the lab.

Pretty much no reception in the house unless near a window or skylight. Outside it's ok- at least able to keep a phone call (most of the time). Definitely no data at home- which is disappointing and frustrating!

pretty good near much of east haven too (Hemingway Ave.)

Pretty good in Madison Towers. Good in most places in downtown. Poor signal in my laboratory building on Whitney and Humphrey (Bass building, Yale).

Reception tends to have heavy static unless right up against windows. Even outdoors, there is a good deal of static, particularly in residential areas away from the central campus. Hard to say if other carriers are any better, particularly in the grad ghetto area.

Get coverage in elevators in my apartment. The voice quality is getting worse, more static than before. Verizon has the coverage where you need it.

The reception is good. Sometimes the call quality is not that great. I find Verizon reliable and calls do not drop.
