In southwest Florida, T-Moble is the worst provider there is.

Dead zones, dropped calls, and just horrible customer assistance.

And as often as not the whiners are probably the problem,
because they are often also the NIMBYs who won't let the
cell companies improve their coverage by erecting more
antennae, even when disguised as bald eagle nests.

At our rural spot, with line-of-sight to multiple
towers with cell stubbies on them, I can sit motionless
and watch the sig strength wander up and down, digital
drop back to analog and reverse, and even occasional
switching to "roaming" mode indication (we don't actually
pay any roaming, but it means we lost the primary carrier).
Are we just in an overlap area between cells? Is our
carrier having maint issues? Who knows.

Glad to see that TV news is down where it belongs.

I have Cingular, and with the exception of a dead zone at the end of my street, they are very good. Customer service has been excellent, too.

They NEVER send me the bill late, either.

That Verizon guy who goes around saying "can you hear me now"? He doesnt come around where I live.

I am damned lucky to get a signal half the time at home and many times I have to go outside and stand in the cold. When I am in the boat crabbing or fishing it never works.

Well T-Mobile has been very very good to me. I had tried the other carriers and T-Mobile has provided the best service and the best customer service.

I swear by T-Mobile. It's the only nationwide GSM carrier in the US, which means that I could get as good a signal in New Zealand as here (Sedona, AZ).
