Half of the time, I cannot initiate calls from inside my condo. I don't tend to get many drops when I actually make calls, but still. Appalling.

Terrible! I had perfect reception with AT&T, then the merger came. First I had a Motorola v551 - couldn't hear a thing - constantly dropped. Cingular sent me now a Nokia 6102i, telling me Motorolas don't work well with their network - DUH - um, hello - why you send me it to begin with?? Anyway - the NOkia is just as bad. Now my fight continues - they said if it didn't work IN MY APARTMENT, they would let me cancel my contract and not charge me the $175! Now I hope this board will help me choose the right carrier for this area! Unreal! Cingular - LOWERS THE BAR!

Inside it's useless on street and second floors. Higher floors work OK to well. Outside it's a 3.

Reception used to be 3 bars back when I had an A500. Calls would get dropped every once in a while, but it was not a major problem. Recently I've "upgraded" to a A680 and it seems like I'm having much more trouble connecting and keeping a call from dropping. Sometimes I'll drop 4 or 5 times in a matter of 3-4 minutes- very distracting. I've installed an external trucker antenna, which does maximize the bars, but every once in a while I will still drop a call, and reception will vary from no bars to full in a matter of seconds. I'm trying to determine what is causing this but I can't. Maybe no direct line of sight with tower, or weird air density in the winter, but no idea really.

No reception and calls get dropped, plus cell issue, it likes to freeze at times... ... DON'T DO ITTT, Sprint needs 2 get on the ball! I hate sprint, thinking about switching to either T-Mobile or Verizon, but Verizon is expensive, so maybe T-mobile

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.
