I say verzion. No probs in the metro area or 757. I have not been to NY with this phone so I'm not sure there. I went to Ohio, fine there and back.

I would say no to nextel. My friend has it and can't get calls in his room. So buildings might be worse. If you know alot of people with them it might be worth it for the 2 way. They don't give you enought mins for what you pay. Yea you can get more but will pay out the ass.

I had suncom then ATT. Suncom was ok, ATT is the best I have seen. I always have better service than any of my friends with any other carrier. I never get dropped calls either. I am pretty sure its the best for nova and most places. Mine worked perfectly from Florida to Maine. I know the nextel and sprint suck for the most part. I believe ATT is also the most expesnsive. A big part of it is whjat phone you get too. The GSN phones are a big different in their service. I dont use one.

i say go with verizon...there's 2 phones i really like...the LG VX4400 and the SAMSUNG SCH-A530
i live right down the street from you, and love sprint.....i donno what was wrong with your phone but i get service in most places in centreville, yes their phones are the best too. but again its your call. i know i'm not droping sprint anytime soon.

Where's the closest AT&T and Verizon dealers from my house? (NOT little table dealers that have 4-5 phones to choose from)
