Verizon you guys are the best I travel down every freeway in the bay area with full bars! Thank you!

AT&T (TDMA) reception is virtually non-existent in this area. I actually forgot how many bars denoted full strength. AT&T were entirely unhelpful... until a small claims court filing brought about a miraculous waiver of the early termination penalty and a refund of several months' charges.

Nextel phoes have decent reception. At least you do not get dropped calls like T-Mobile. The only place you don't get reception at for the Nextel phone under steel sturctures that are underground.

Swiss cheese coverage. Small spikes of great reception in tiny areas, in others, one to two bars. 80% of time, zero signal.

I guess its because I live near the mountains, but reception is ok. It was worst when I had AT&T though. But other then that everywhere else I go I get good recpetion.

Normally 0- 2 bars in this area. Cingular isn't strong enough.

Most times I'm lucky if I can get 2 bars. It's useless at 1 bar. TDMA is just slightly better at between 2 and 3 bars. As soon as my contract is done, I'll be looking elswhere for my carrier.

Terrible reception outdoors, and no reception indoors.

Reception is poor, but sometimes goes away completely. If I try to call someone when it is really bad, my phone (which says it has full strength) tells me that I can only make a 911 call.
