Nextel 1 Out of 5	Nextel reception around 181 st. sucks. Barely works in the basement and don't even thinks of using the phone between 183rd and 185 st and Pinehurst.

Nextel 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i860	Washington St. / Jane St., New York, NY 10014	Wed Mar 15, 2006
Nextel 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i860	Reception is spotty on the street and nonexistent in my apartment -- I have to keep the phone near the window to get any signal at all. If I leave it on my desk 15 feet away I'll miss calls.

Nextel 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i830	West Village / Greenwich St., New York, NY 10014	Wed Sep 14, 2005
Nextel 1 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i830	Only by an occasional miracle can I complete a call from here to midtown. Abysmal service, they keep sending mailers telling me how they're improving service in NYC - wish they'd spend the marketing money on towers. Also - north of Bank St.along the riverwalk service is pathetic to non-existant to the midtown area.

Nextel 0 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i830	34th St. / Broadway Ave., New York, NY 10001	Sat Aug 20, 2005
Nextel 0 Out of 5 Phone Model: Motorola i830	I cant believe Nextel is still in this business... When I get a call, it drops.. I cant recall getting a call that didnt drop.. and push to talk is getting worse and worse, I guess they are overloading circuits because I get busy all the time.. My friend that just got Cingular service is raving about it.. Freaking 2-year contract..

Nextel 5 Out of 5 Phone Model: i 730	W 133rd St. / Broadway, New York, NY 10027	Sun Jul 31, 2005
Nextel 5 Out of 5 Phone Model: i 730	Nextel by far is the best cellular phone service in New York City. I use my phone all over the city. My co-workers who have T-Mobile and Cingular ask to use my phone inside of some location because they dont have a signal.
