Nextel
Reception is Ok at best near the classroom areas. INside the commons, absolutely no service. Around campus decent service but I tend to get my messages late.. Sometimes hours late. Pretty Lame

Varies from 0 to 1 bar. Same for Cingular. Both are GSM most likely same tower. The carrier coverage maps tell a different story. I like to see a carrier actually perform a signal strength survey and fix the problem. One the other hand using Sprint's EVDO has been very successful

Constantly dropping calls. Never ever have service in my house or on Fort Ave.

I've never had a problem with Verizon anywhere in Baltimore. I don't think I've ever even had a dropped call!

We live in a neighborhood called the Orchards which is bounded by Northern Parkway, N. Charles, W. Lake, and Roland Ave. The coverage is terrible. Although we have Cingular, neighbors with other providers have the same issue. It may be a case of NIMBY run amok.

Nextel is the worst. It doesn't work at my home; it doesn't work at my office! I drop call regularly

cingular worked perfectly for 2 months, and now the service quality is just terrible: dropped calls, and someday not even a network access... does not come from my phone thoug, as it works in most other places.

Outdoors in Mt. Vernon I get okay reception, but indoors (even in my 1st floor apartment) I often get very weak reception. This is especially true in bars (The Stable and Brewars Art) with basements. I normally would not expect my cell phone to work in these locations, but I get zero reception while my friends with Verizon get full bars! I would switch to Verizon but from what I have read they "cripple" some of the better phones they offer so you can only interact with them through Verizon services (eg, you cannot transfer images from your PC to your phone because Verizon disables the feature in the phone). I'm disappointed, is there no service with good reception and halfway decent phones?

When you move into the area, you'll notice lots of people standing outside talking on their cell phones. Reception inside is dismal; outside is somewhat better. The best I've had inside is 3 bars but whenever I make a call it drops to zero or one bar. Lots of dropped calls.

My service is great, in my house and out the door. There is sometimes a problem going north on Greenspring Ave. but the reception is perfect again once I reach Old Court Road. No problems... I think the service is fine.
