Verizon gives me 0 bars inside my house, 1-2 in the far corner of the backyard if the weather is favorable. After having such bad to non-existant service for the 2 year contract, I have found that I don't really need a cell phone after all. So I'm cancelling service when the contract ends in December. Free again!

Decent service in this area 3 Bars of 3G / Edge inside the house and outdoors - Much better than previous Verizon wireless coverage in this area with 0 or 1 Bars. The signal switches from 3G to Edge often though, but doesn't really affect voice calls as much as data usage.

My phone alternates between 0, 1, and 2 bars. People will frequently try to call me but the phone won't ring. Maybe 20 minutes later I'll get notification of a voicemail. Even outside the house, it may take several minutes to get a signal. My girlfriend's phone doesn't fare mutch better. If I enable roaming on the phone, frequently when I try to make a call it will say something like "Welcome to America's Roaming Network! Please have your credit card ready to make a call"

5 Bars - No dropped calls, occasionally phone will not ring and calls are routed to voicemail - but suspect it is the cell phone and not the carrier.

I get great service pretty much everywhere I go with Sprint, especially the west side of Fort Worth. I have a high speed data card that works great at home near Camp Bowie. I travel frequently and I'm all around the Fort Worth area. As with any carrier, you will get a dead spot or two, but I'm usually out if it within a quarter mile on the highway. Great service. Highly recommended.

Weak Service at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and surrounding areas. This is the south side of FTW and many of the carriers are not concerned about this area.

What the heck happened to Cingular! Ever since ATT took over my reception went from a constant 4-5 bars to 2! While pulling into my apartments my signal goes dead. I can't receive calls in stores either. Cingular used to be the best, leave it to ATT to screw that up!

Excellent reception, never any dropped calls.

Well. It's your old friend JP again. Here is the latest. I was out of town for a few weeks and shortly after my return, the Sprint coverage bit the dust again. Once I turn off Camp Bowie onto the Normandale streets (especially South Normandale), the bars go progressive down. Once I get in front of my apartment complex, calls start to drop after a few seconds. In the apartment, it's the same way. Meanwhile, my roomate is chattering away on his Cingular Phone (He switched from Sprint because of his miserable reception in the apartment complex and some other place. I might as well face it. I will not be able to carry a conversation in this apartment complex unless I switch carriers. This is unfortunate because there will be a early termination fee, even though the service failed to meet my needs - both at work and at the job. Such is life.

With my LG CU500 I always have 3G coverage with 4 or 5 bars never seen it below 3, even in the local Wal Mart and Sams Club. Now that is a good $200 phone from Wal Mart
