every day I head east on Manor from work and forget nearly every day that IF I place a call between Dean Keeton and Chestnut, more than likely, the call will drop.

Outdoor coverage is very good. Indoor coverage is acceptable closer to the Veloway.

Generally T-Mobile anywhere in Austin, Texas, US is spotty to poor. Static a lot on the calls, regardless of number of bars. Often can't even connect to other T-Mobile phones (e.g. family plan stuff). Not real happy with them but other than Verison, it seems par for all other carriers her based on other posts.

Actually get good reception on a Samsung flip phone that is 2 years old (3-4 bars). Lower floor of 2 story condo. Do get dropped called downtown 6th and Congress on Sprint. Bought a T-Mobile Blackberry Curve 8320 a week ago and only get 1-2 bars and already 2 dropped calls, one in the middle of a T-Mobile store survey... Might try Verizon...

Anderson Mill Rd. / RR 620, Austin, TX 78750 Wed Feb 11, 2009

Phone constantly bounces between (E)dge and 3G coverage - shotty call quality at best - and constantly miss incoming calls. AT&T's maps show this to be a good coverage area - what a JOKE! I get better data and voice service with tin cans and string.

Manchaca / Larchmont Dr. (nr Lamar), Austin, TX 78704 Wed Jan 28, 2009

Fluctuating 0 to 2 bars at my house, phone does not ring reliably, don't get messages until I call out. Brand new phone, have tried 3 in the last month. About 10 calls to customer support and 2 trips to the store. Support says there is no problem even though I am less than 1 / 3 mile from the nearest tower.
