Coverage around town very impressive for 1.9 ghz - guess they sell a lot of minutes to college kids... Works solid to Lufkin, but coverage around Lufkin could be better but works solid if you stay inside or on the loop. Once you get south of Dibol Verizon goes back to 800B so you may have a hard handoff or a call disconnect somewhere down there. Once the handoff is complete you'll enjoy solid coverage to Houston. Just don't drive east or west. You won't be happy! TX7, TX21, TX103, US69... doesn't matter. 'Fringe' coverage worked much better when Verizon offered roaming through Sprint. Sprint is on 800B in this area and had considerably more 'stable' signal because of it (remember, this is pine tree country!) When its all said and done, AT&T's 'main roads' coverage is better. Verizon will get you considerably more 'stand on the rail of your pickup truck out in the middle of the woods' coverage. Your mileage may vary.

I get no bars inside my home. I get one or two outside if I find the right spot. The clerk told me I would be able to use this phone inside buildings. That is only true in the locations where they sell them. I don't think it is necessarily the phone because my friends have to do the same thing with their iphones when at my house. I think AT&T doesn't have the same coverage as when I first started using cell phones. I think after they quit using other companies towers and cut out roaming is when the dropped calls and started to affect users so much. When my contract is up,I will be checking into other providers.

Got suckered into AT&T by my in-laws. Service is zero in the home, I have to stand on the front porch just to get reception or go to the barn. I found a tower about 2 miles SW of my home. You would think that would work but not... The only way to get the phone companys to shape up is to stop using them until they get their act together...

I have to drive up to North St.and sit in parking lots to get a strong signal on my phone. The signal is very weak due to the low terrain, as we are near the Lanana Creek bottom. The phone is pretty much useless to me otherwise as people hang up on me because the signal is so weak.

very spotty reception in nacogdoches, TX. If any it always on roaming.

Very poor, if any reception on campus or anywhere in town.

First our reception was very poor. Occasional. Now after AT&T bought Cingular, our reception is NILL! We're changing to Celluar One.
