Reception in downtown area great. works in elevators and inside buildings. Cingular / ATT's 850mhz has better ability to go thru walls than the other higher cellular frequencies much the same as bass goes thru walls better than treble from your neighbor's stereo.
T-Mobile recently added a tower to the neighborhood, and reception increased dramatically. Funny, since the local T-Mobile business offices are so close (Forest / Webb Chapel) and the coverage was so awful for the past few years.
My T68 gets poor reception in my house, sometimes sporadic, no bars to 4 and then 1 - worse in the last two weeks. Two other phones (cheap Samsungs) seem to get good reception. I can walk a block in either direction and get a good signal.
I get terrible reception in my home, except for one tiny spot in a room. I get bad pockets all throughout the backyard and front yard. I am now in IA and the same problems. No reception in the house here, except for a tiny spot in the house. All my friends seem to get excellent reception with Verizon in all places. I'm switching when my contract ends April 18th. Nothing has changed in over 2 years.
My phone never works in my house and this is a big problem since I office out of my house can get the reception to talk to customers. I have called Cingular several times and the only thing they suggest is to buy a call forward device that sends the signal from the cell to the home phone. They also there are plenty of towers in the area and my phone should be working fine what a load of crap
