Sprint
I have been with Sprint for 5 years (and through several different phones) and have had great reception in all places in Indy and the smaller towns around Indy. Their are only two places I don't get (good) reception: at my office cube deep inside the building at 71st and 465 and inside my parents house in Evansville (whose home is in a valley. If not for those two places I would give Sprint reception a 5.

Sitting in my living room, I get no bars. Move to the kitchen and I get 3-4 roaming on a clear day. Even outside by the street, I might get 1 bar.

I get bad reception in my house. I have lost more calls with Verizon in the past 2 weeks then I did with T-Mobile over 5 yrs.

Hilly and a forest... not ideal.. Oddly I used to loose reception with 5 bars when I lived at Crooked Creek Apts. Then I got a new phone and it only showed 2 bars all the time and I never dropped calls in the same location.

Where ever I go with my phone I get a great coverage.

The only lack of reception I've had with AT&T / Cingular is at the back of a Walmart store and while in the emergency room at the hospital (St Vincent's). Other than that, I've had AT&T for 8 years am extremely happy with it. I was tempted to go to Sprint, as I like their coverage / prices better, but since I don't have a land line any longer, and I know AT&T's good; I think I'll stay with what I have.

If I go outside I have fairly good reception, however, if I am in the apartment I must stay next to a window and have very spotty reception with a lot of static and / or dropped calls. Have replaced phone 3 times in 2 years, many calls to customer service, replaced sim card, replaced battery... and, hopefully it is the phone. I just ordered a Nokia 5610 having been advised that I would get much better reception at home (and some at work just 1 / 2 mile from home... others on T-Mobile with different phones seem to have no problems). At least, I have 14 days after delivery in which to decide whether to keep phone or search for another provider.

Miserable in most of my home most of the time but usually works elsewhere. On the bright side, Sprint tells me that my home reception is fine

Reception strength very sporatic throughout Indianapolis. Choppy conversations and many dropped calls. Have only had the service for about 6 days and am switching back to old carrier(AT&T / Cingular). I switched to T-Mobile because of the price but cannot deal with the poor reception / call quality. I really WANTED to like them :-(

I go to Butler, and while everyone with Verizon is leaning out of windows to get a signal, and those with Cingular get constant dropped calls, I can be anywhere on campus and have perfect reception. In this part of Indy, and many others Sprint has the others beat
