My friend switched to Verizon Wireless from AT&T because of the lack of service in the area, and he said he loved it. We went on a trip and he had service in more areas then my AT&T phone did. Also, he had 3G service too. I was stuck on EDGE. I'm coming from a iPhone 3G. I made the switch and I love it! My internet is fast, and I get 3G all over the place. I can now place calls in my house! I have some friends and family who are about to switch.

I'm a truck driver by trade, and drive from Birmingham, AL to Brandon, MS everyday, Monday through Friday. I get great reception right up to the west side of Tuscaloosa, AL, and a little beyond, but then my reception degrades to 1 bar... and I cannot receive or initiate a call. When I get into the Brandon, MS area, I have 4 bars of reception... but still can't use the phone! I have a national plan, and hadn't experienced that type of difficulty anywhere else with this plan and with this phone. It's my understanding that Verizon is expanding to Jackson, MS, and should have cells operational there soon, but what about on the interstate as I travel over? I only have a few months left on my contract, and will be switching to a provider that has a good phone and good coverage from Birmingham all the way to Jackson... as well as offering a phone with good quality reception. All that optional crap is nice, but in the end, I just want a phone that works.
