Solid signal with no dropped calls indoors or out. In fact I found very good reception throughout the Atlanta metro area.

Reception is good in downtown Atlanta but Cingular customer service is terrible. Cingular is great as long as you don't need to actually talk to them.

Verizon's coverage is BY FAR the best in the Atlanta area. I have been with ATT (TDMA) and Cingular (TDMA) previously. The real advantage is the technology. Verizon's CDMA 1x technology (also used by Sprint) is inherently superior to GSM for several reasons: 1. The range is much longer (CDMA signals can reach 60 miles+ while GSM begins to lose effectiveness around 20 miles or so), 2. CDMA allows much higher network volume (so calls rarely get dropped), and 3. The transition of the signal from cell tower to cell tower is handled more efficiently in CDMA, thereby virtually eliminating dropped calls. FYI, Cingular, based here in Atlanta, continues to have MAJOR problems with GSM implementation. Be warned!

I get no more than one or two bars where T-Mobile gave me three and four. Verizon says I'm within 1.5 miles of a tower and say my equipment is faulty yet my wife has a Motorola e815 and gets the same poor reception here and up where she works in Norcross above the Perimeter. Verizon ran a trouble ticket then failed to call back to report. When I called they were incredibly defensive / aggressive and blaming the phone, but not offering to fix it even though we're halfway through a two year contract. Verizon is the WORST wireless company I've ever dealt with customer-service wise apart from the connection problems which exist on some level with all companies. I'll never use them again and may pay the $175 to dump them.

A year ago reception was very spotty and calls would routinely drop in the same spots along E. Rock Springs Road / Morningside Drive. A new tower must have been installed a few months ago as service had been excellent in this entire area. Beginning about a month ago, service is spotty again and calls almost drop in those same problem areas. Hopefully T-Mobile will find the tower that is now having problems. T-Mobile customer service is incredible... you never sit on hold waiting for a CSR.

VERIZON IS GREAT! I had ATT, it was bad and switched to Cingular. Cingular got worse and worse and worse. Dropped calls non-stop everywhere. Bad service everywhere. Dr.2 feet and better, drive 2 feet and worse. I just switched to Verizon after seeing Consumer Reports article about surveys saying that Verizon had best reception in Atlanta, with least number of dropped calls. In app. 2 months with Verizon GREAT RECEPTION. I've only had one dropped call total. With Cingular I got several dropped calls a day. Verizons reeptioin is great indoors and out. 30306 works everywhere. I love Verizon so far.

Calls are routinely dropped and callers often say that I sound like I'm underwater. Service has been horrible very often, at times tolerable but never really acceptable.
