Connection quality issues

I like the commercials about the fewest dropped calls. But that's if
you get connected in the first place.

Which provider has the best connection? Is it Verizon? Is it TMobile?
That's whom I wish to go with. Not this no signal and no bars crap.

My contract ends this November, and I won't be renewing Cingular.

Verizon has the most coverage, but in any given area that may not be the
case. All Cellular phone companies cut corners in support and Customer
Service.

This is just *MY opinion....
From testing in Southern California,Nevada,Ar
izona and Maui,Oahu,Kauai
Hawaii.....
Verizon's 880Mhz CDMA/EVDO system wins hands down in quality, speed and
completed calls...
Cingular and Sprint on 1900Mhz just cant compare and lack penetration into
buildings.
Cingular has a MAJOR problem of calls getting mixed and people dropping into
your call here.

It's according to where you live, in my area Cingular or Alltel, almost no
coverage with Verizon and none a'tall with TMobile.

I think it just depends on where you live and travel.

I live in central Missouri and regularly travel to the greater Boston
area north into New Hampshire and central Virginia and have never had an
issue with Cingular (including the airports I go through to get to those
places). I always have service and can't remember the last time a call
was dropped. Using BLackberry 8700c.

It depends on the area that you live in.
