Sprint. In a few weeks when I'm eligible for the $150 rebate, I'm going to buy the LG-325. Woohoo!

AT&T/Cingular... i'm thinking of switching... supposably the GSM thing gets you reception regardless of where you are... well i still can't get reception at my mother-in-laws house and inside the building i work...

i hardly use the phone unless its an emergency...

Verizon - Best coverage hands down.

Verizon - Best coverage.

I'd consider Cingular, but there's too many places I travel upstate NY far off the major highways and out in the California desert where GSM phones have no service. Besides, Verizon just got rated far above all the others again by Consumer Reports and most people I know with cell phones have Verizon anyway so my calls from/to them are free.

To me, having a phone that enables me to make and receive calls where and when I need to is more important that Bluetoothing it with the car. Soon, Verizon will have more Bluetooth choices than the Motorola V710, like the Samsung i730 PDA phone.

Are you using GSM? If so, then T-mobile allows you to use AT&T/Cingular networks as well.

Alltel. Think Verizon, but with slightly different plans and phones and a little more coverage - Alltel customers get to use the Verizon network free of charge.
