TREO phones and ATT service do nto go together. Regularly miss calls, voice manil does not pick up... .as a Realtor I travel all over Austin. Some days the phone works, other days... .it doesn't pick up calls. I get the missed call message hours or days later. Weekends are expecially bad for reception. I tihnk it is an ATT issue, and this type of phone is not known to be that great for reception. I am on my third TREO... .screens go out and ATT replaces them for me. They all suck.

Atrocious reception at my own house... often cannot even hold a conversation. Other side can't hear me, call drops... really bad. Just signed a 2-year contract to get my Blackberry... nightmarish. If you live in this area, do yourself a favor and get another carrier...

Constant dropped calls. If not every call, every other call. I always enjoy it when the Sprint customer service person says, "I can't hear you, you are really breaking up." I like to point out that I am roughly in the center of Austin. I always give my Sprint commercial: Don't use sprint, don't ever use sprint, dear God don't use sprint. or "You can't hear me now." -my personal favorite.

According to the tower coverage map on this site, there AREN'T any Verizon towers in my area of Austin! I get maybe 3 bars in my yard and only 1-2 bars in my house. Where I work I fluctuate between 0-1 bar all day long. I've also called cust svc and was told he just couldn't believe they were having a problem with so many towers in Austin - it had to be my phone. This is a brand new phone, and I had the same problem with my previous phone which was a newer model that I traded in. Verizon needs more towers in South Austin.

every day I head east on Manor from work and forget nearly every day that IF I place a call between Dean Keeton and Chestnut, more than likely, the call will drop.

Outdoor coverage is very good. Indoor coverage is acceptable closer to the Veloway.

Generally T-Mobile anywhere in Austin, Texas, US is spotty to poor. Static a lot on the calls, regardless of number of bars. Often can't even connect to other T-Mobile phones (e.g. family plan stuff). Not real happy with them but other than Verison, it seems par for all other carriers her based on other posts.

Actually get good reception on a Samsung flip phone that is 2 years old (3-4 bars). Lower floor of 2 story condo. Do get dropped called downtown 6th and Congress on Sprint. Bought a T-Mobile Blackberry Curve 8320 a week ago and only get 1-2 bars and already 2 dropped calls, one in the middle of a T-Mobile store survey... Might try Verizon...
