Over two years ago, I had Nextel. I always had spotty reception with them, and plenty of dropped calls. I then decided to go with Verizon once my contract was up. Up until a month ago or so, I had excellent reception, call clarity, and almost no dropped calls. But lately, my experience went from excellent to terrible. I am usually anywhere between Salem and Boston everyday, and quite often in other parts of the north shore and greater Boston. At most I can get two to three bars, or just none at all. I am thinking about switching to either T-Mobile or Cingular once my contract is up. Cingular is supposedly upgrading their technology and / or transitioning to a completely new one. T-Mobile may follow. I will have to wait and see how that goes. I am aware that there are mixed reviews for all the wireless phone companies. But at this point, my relationship with Verizon is shakey.
