I get great reception from U.S. Cellular in a townhouse subdivision with forest preserves on two sides. I tried serveral other carriers when I moved into the new subdivision 5 1 / 2 years ago and could not get a good signal inside my house. The carriers I tried were Verizon and T-Mobile. I don't know if the signal for those carriers has improved since then. I would like to get an iPhone and am wondering if anyone in my area can tell me how AT&t service works for them.

T-mobile reception in Old Westgate subdivision in Palos Heights is poor at best and it's common to have dropped calls. I've been told by neighbors that this service deficiency might be compounded by the large number of trees.

Used to have ok reception until July 20, very poor now, I don't recieve calls or messages and cannot make outgoing calls. Cingular says "Oh Well, we will look into it," they can't understand it, "It must be the phone!?" But, they cannot explain why it worked for the 8 months before.
