i found tmobile gsm pretty good, but nothing compared to my new verizon phone

it sounds better, i find, then cdma. if tmobile and att now share networks, it might be better then what i was using

att is suppose to be great now that it uses cingular's 800 or was it 850mhz network also. Make sure the gsm phone can go on 800/850 though. I had att GSM with the mpx200 and service was extremely bad in NJ/NY since it doesnt go on those freq.

well i can give a map of the whole area, but it looks like shit. where do you use the phone the most. Throw some zips down



Green is signal, the lighter it gets the weaker the signal...Its a terrible map though because its from such a distance away
