I've been with Sprint since I was 16,they are the best! Not only do they offer great phones at a very affordable price,but their coverage is Grade A. I can never say that I haven't got service I'm my home or ANYWHERE else I go. I used to have Verizon before I got Sprint and they sucked ass! Excuse my french but they are garbage! I couldn't get service in my own home,I had to stand in the MIDDLE of my street to make phonecalls and etc..pfft! sad. But you guys... seriously... SPRINT is the best. Sincerely, Satisfied Sprint User since 2005

Verizon has been very good to me in terms of call quality and reception, but with all great things comes a cost and in this case money, If your willing to pay a few more bucks for a lot more bang than Verizon is the best way to go, I get service everywhere in DC, unless I'm on the first floor in which case I have "Okay" service

Hmm, I'm betting the prior poster lives in my apartment building. I too have a Cingular RazR and get absolutely no recedption in my apartment. Cingular will not waive the early termination fee, even though I have no reception whatsoever, because it's "my problem" that my building has no reception. Mind you, Verizon and T-Mobile phones both get full service in my building. It is very frustrating - it's one thing to be told that you can't get out of a contract because you've moved to the middle of nowhere. But moving within a major metropolitan area to another apartment in the same area? And still being told it's your "problem"? It's reprehensible.

Cingular is a reference to the number of bars. I want to throw my phone at the TV everytime I see a Cingular commercial.

Is T-Mobile reception getting worse? I used to get only one bar at work, now I get none. TMO swaped out my phone but still no dice.
