I had Nextel andw as happy with the coverage until I moved about 15 miles South. Then I would only get signal if I stood on my front porch while holding a metal rod and touching my tounge to my nose.
So I switched to Verizon, get perfect reception anywhere in teh house, - the metal rod. I miss teh walkie-talkie feature occassionally, but overall I'm happy I left them, especially since they merged with Sprint.
They get great reception in the heart of areas, but touch the boundary nad you get nothing. And you don't realize how bulky their phones are until you don't have one and have a phone with a bigger screen!
