For those of you on the T-Mobile Network. On a triband phone (900 / 1800 / 1900), you will not get reception in most of Vermont. I have been travelling to Ludlow for the last four years and the only place that my phone works is on Killington(probably Burlington but never been there). Now the story is, T-Mobile have contracts with suppliers in VT but only on 850 band network. I believe this is true for all phones and companies(true for Cingular at least). T-Mobile told me last year that I must have an 850 band phone to work in VT hence why their coverage map says they have coverage in roaming areas! So your best bet is to buy yourself a quadband unlocked phone which is very pricey indeed. At least it will work everywhere. I am getting the Nokia N73. Will check back with details.

Sprint PCS has no reception in the Ludlow / Weston / Londonderry area. I've only gotten reception in Rutland and Manchester
