Sprint gives very poor reception in some low lying areas of DC, so am considering switching to Verizon which seems to get great coverage everywhere. Have even lost coverage in other non-low lying busy areas.

I use this phone for business out of my house all day long. Very, very few problems with coverage. Both this phone, and the Treo 650 could use some help in the bug department. I average one major bug a month. Sprints phone technical help is pretty good - when you get them on the phone. Their in-store help is the worst I have ever seen. Avoid the retail stores like the plague!

Can't hold a call for more than 10 minutes. It's been getting worse in the last months. Perhaps nearby embassies security devices?

Over the past six months, I have had no reception in my apartment building or in the surrounding blocks, as far away as Foxhall Road. I used to be able to make Sprint calls from my balcony, but now I have to leave my neighborhood to get a signal.

I get the worst reception with my Sprint phone in the DC area. I don't think I ever get more than 1 bar or if I'm lucky 2. Strange thing is, in certain parts of Maryland I can get 4 bars. I even carried my phone into sprint, got a replacement and had the same problem. I think it's Sprint's sucky network.

Though reception is great and I rarely have clarity issues, Sprint seems completely unwilling to help me out since I have an older phone. Their service center wouldn't update the firmware even though when calling customer service they said I should get it updated there. They claimed this might fix the dropped calls, non-getting of calls, etc (even with full 5 bars and ability to call out), though none of the many reps could tell me exactly HOW the firmware was able to cause this problem. Sprint provided NO resolution to this problem, therefore they are losing my business.
