Generally decent, but the network seems to have "fits" occasionally where you may or may not be able to make calls out or you'll have a lot of calls dropped..

I travel between DeKalb and Rockford daily.Horrible phone service in between points A&B with sprint, I have given up on voice and have been reduced to texting to communicate.I had the same issue traveling to Sandwich. It seems to be much worse than when I had Nextel a few years ago.

Dropped calls constantly. Phone will ring on my end maybe about 25% of the time, otherwise they go to voicemail. Even text messages come in bunches, have gotten 4 or 5 all in a row that have been sent to me hours prior. No signal in my house, OR at my work, so pretty much the only time the phone is worth a damn is when I'm driving between the two, which is 10 minutes. Why am I paying $80+ dollars a month for this again??

I would say perfect signal but I can't seem to stay connected to their 3G network. Oh well. Other than that, the only building I do not get signal in is Montgomery.

Had problems with Verizon when travelling to the west to work. Lots of dead areas. Switched to US Cellular a year ago and have never had a problem anywhere in N. Illinois.

I get good service here in dekalb with my droidx i'd say perfect but I don't get the best signal at home. It still beats AT&T which I had my whole life, but started having horrible signal if not no signal at all. Which is why I contacted AT&T and fought then to get out of my contract!..FYI According to the person who helped me, its in the contract, if the company cannot provide you with service, you have the right to leave them at no charge.
