Good reception in No VA, downtown DC, NW quadrant up to Bethesda. There's a dead spot on the metro line through Falls Church, but otherwise reception has generally been good all over, 3+ bars. Sometimes no reception in the center of large office buildings. Get occasional dropped call, but only on long conversations (10+ min). Thinking of switching to Cingular because I need a Windows OS Smartphone.

Although I don't really like Verizon Wireless, I had to switch to them because Sprint doesn't get coverage inside buildings at the school (GMU). Sprint and most others get coverage fine outside, but once you go inside buildings, coverage drops tremendously. I contacted Sprint to see if they were planning to put a tower nearby at all to boost signal inside the buildings, but they said that they already had coverage in that area, and were not planning to expand it any in the near future.

Gainsborough Dr. / Commonwealth, Fairfax, VA 22032 Sun Jul 30, 2006

Some dropped calls at home. Reception usually fair anyplace in house and good outside. Depending on weather conditions, can usually make and receive calls anytime. My gripe is with Verizon's business practices but I still think they have the best cell service nationwide. I am rarely unable to use the phone when I travel.

AT&T reception is average (3 bars) inside & outside. Cingular is 1 bar, dropped lines, depends where you are in the house, you may get lucky to connect and have a clear reception.
