As far as I can tell, Cingular has the best reception if you are going to be on the Northeastern campus. It's spotty in some of the classroom buildings, but only on the lower floors.

Cell phone is low at my house. I have plenty of bars and then it just drops. My phone is not even a year old. In town the phone works great, but in South Boston the reception is very poor.

I get perfect reception in most of Boston, but there are some spots with no signal at all: 1. The Memorial drive twist betwen Galeria mall and MIT 2. Crossing BU bridge 3. Getting off Storrow drive to Fenway 4. Parts of Sudbury and soranding towns. 5. Parts of Rt. 109 in Medway area. 6. Tr 93 Medford area 7. Lee and Newton street area in Chestnut Hill. Happy with the servise. Not happy with the upgrade phones and the way they offer things to strangers, but not to the loyal long term customers.

Nextel completely sucks in this area, and everyone I know hates it. It will jump from 4 bars to none in a second. You will generally drop your call if you are on any longer then a minute. Especially if you are doing business in this area, do not get Nextel.

Great outside. Sucks when in some places, I've been looking around, thinking about adding Sprint Treo 650 for business purposes, great site, good insight, definately something to look up before signing a 1-2 year contract :).

Sprint's gotten a lot better outside, I think. However, my apartment is on the ground level of a brownstone and only have service next to my window. Anywhere else in the small apartment, and I lose signal.

Works great from Longwood Ave Hospitals through the Fens and into the South End.
