Inside my house, more frequently then not, I get no signal at all. Sporadically will pick up a bar or 2 of edge and 3G, only to find when I place a call it fails. Found that T-Mobile has the closest tower(antennas are actually up on the power companys tower) to my location, just about a mile or 2 due north on corner of 216th Ave SE and SE 288th St. Got a prepaid SIM card from them and put it into my iPhone 3G, and never got below 2 bars of edge. Couldn't test T-Mobiles 3G coverage since the iPhone doesn't support their 3G frequencies. Once my contact is up with AT&T I'm switching to T-Mobile!

many dropped calls. Phone switches to edge from 3g. Very disappointing as a long time user.

The GPRS signal has significantly improved for this area. Though probably still working a bit on 1900, no dropped calls, travel widely between Kent, Federal Way, Auburn, Fife, Milton, Covington, etc.

Nearly impossible to make a call from my house in White Horse Crossing. Signal strength meter fluctuates between no service and five bars and constantly changes between AT&T and Cingular. Samsung X 426 is no better.

There is a dead spot at this location. move a quarter of a mile either way and you get great reception. It is the only dead spot I have found. Otherwise, the signal strength elsewhere is strong.

This phone and the service are horrible. Neat phone if you want a toy. Horrible phone if you want to make phone calls. Can't say much for the Nextel service or customer support either. If you have a choice, don't choose this phone!

Bad reception, break-up, and static, plus dropped calls. Cell phone to cell phone can be a big challenge hearing the other person.

I have had sprint for 2 years now. I work for Radio Shack and we sell both sprint and verizon. I choose sprint over verizon because sprint has better coverage. The free and clear america cannot be beaten. You get everyone elses towers to use for only 5 bucks a month. GIVING you almost perfect reception anywhere you go. Sprint pays more than 5 bucks for you to have that service. Sprint is the way to go. Fair and Flexible and nights at 7, and no ROAMING! Its true no roaming. Go to cannon beach oregon, verizon only works there. no sprint. I signed my friend up for Free and Clear america, full service! It works. Sprint is the way to go. Plus sprint can fix you plan no matter what. Everyone says that their bill gets messed up by sprint but its actually the stupid consumer that cant understand how bills work and that they are pro-rated. The extra charges are because customers think stuff is free when its not. Go Sprint! It's better than anyone out there.

Only tested Edge coverage since I put my T-Mobile sim in my unlocked iPhone 3G. Test calls to voicemail worked great. Once I get a T-Mobile phone with 3G I'll post here again.

T-Mobile reception on the street in front of our house in a minimally useable 2 bars, but inside our house it drops to between 1 bar and completely unuseable. Otherwise, there are a few familiar deadspots (such as driving on Thomas Rd.or at the bottom of the Crest Airpark) but generally the service is satisfactory other than in-house use. I am looking to switch to a service which works at 3 bars or better inside our house for business use.
