Wow -3rd world is about right. I just switched from Nextel to Sprint, but it ain't 'sprint'ing by any means. Missed calls, POOR reception (1-2 bars at most on a good day) OK in town like everyone else, Wally World and Albertsons are completely out on both carriers. I guess since we just got electricity, we have to wait for a decent phone...

Reception here is poor and varies from 1 to 2 bars. Lots of dropped calls. Considered using a Sprint card for internet service but don't want poor reception on the internet. Seven years ago we started with AT&T. Service at first was very bad but improved to about 3 bars. Quit them because their pricing scheme sometimes cost us boucoup bucks due to delayed billing especially when roaming in B.C. Canada-- from their Rogers Network which was owned by AT&T. We like Sprint's "Fair and (automatically) Flexible" plan, but reception sucks. We're considering Verison when our contract is up.

I Have lived in numerous places and this is the worst area for coverage I have ever experienced. I started here with Cingular and got 0 / 1 bars at best so changing to Sprint was hoping for a great improvement. Well I guess you could say I Doubled by reception now I get 1 / 2 bars at any given time with numerous dead spots where I cant even get a signal. Like living in a third world country.

Sprint PCS user in Oak Harbor for 6+ years. Coverage inside Oak harbor is good except for Walmart / Albertsons area. Lose reception also on SR20 in Dugualla Bay and at Deception Pass, but otherwise good north of Oak Harbor. Spotty reception south of Coupeville-to-Freeland, none in Ft Ebey SP or in Langley out by Saratoga woods. Spotty coverage nearing Clinton, remains spotty until you get off the ferry in Mukilteo. Switching to Cingular now, so will report back after a few months with them.
