Was very good, with the older phones. Started having problems with dropped or losing signals about 6 months ago, but nothing too extreme. Upgraded phones 2 months ago, alot of times, can't dc, dropped on calls, can't phone out, very poor reception. Tested old phone and new phone, new phone loses more bars than the old phone does. Am going back to my old 88s until I can come up with $400 to cancel the contract. Unfortunately, not many other providers do well in my area. Nextel was the only one. Have tried att, cingular, alltel, verizon. Maybe just use my onstar??

I have had AT&T's TDMA for 3 years now and it has been the best service that I have found yet. There GSM network is horrible. Verizon and Alltel drops about 90% of my calls made from my house and T-mobile goes in and out with a maximum of to bars of signal. AT&T's TDMA is the best for me but they do not any longer make the phone for that service so you can't get a camera phone.

Just moved to the area expecting good reception due to 1) Verizon's usual good coverage, 2) coverage shown on maps and 3) lots of glowing reports of how wired most of developed Florida is! Steady at only 1 bar and regular drops. Maybe I'm missing something here? This area is all business and residential, not the sticks, with towers all over the place. Just no Verizon? Dissapointed in FL!

Love the phone, love the service, love the reception.

I had AT&T Digital service then switched to "better coverage" with GSM... ha ha ha. I have been with this company since 1998, and the service quality keeps dropping with the years. I signed a new two year contract back in Feb / Mar of this year, but last month, I made the most liberating decision and the $175 I paid to break my contract is the best $175 I have spent in a long time. I now have 0 dropped calls, excellent customer service, and full signal wherever I go with Alltel. It is a bit more expensive, but worth the extra cash.
