lol see a part of this is where you are at. I'm in Phx and Sprint does me just fine but looks like I'd be a complainer if I lived in the East. I would hope vzw would have better service based on their rate plans. If you are going to pay more better get better service for your money. I hope now Att can drop that fewest dropped calls slogan.

If you read their claim it's based on WORLDWIDE coverage. SO no, they will probably not drop it because based on worldwide coverage it's a valid claim. Get your facts straight moron.

Umm... who cares about WORLDWIDE coverage when most of us spend 95% of our time in America? If someone is dumb enough to fall for that lame slogan, then they deserve the poor service they get. It's the same with "more bars in more places." Why do I care if they get coverage in places that I am not going to be. In America, where it counts, both their slogans are null.

Forget about worldwide and focus on America, just as you just said. I live in Phoenix too and have Verizon Wireless. I happen to know for a fact that both Sprint and Alltell have great Market coverage IN THIS AREA. Try driving outside of phoenix and you will find out that Sprint & Alltel just won't work as well or in nearly as many places as Verizon Wireless will and does. And although you may not travel outside of a 30 mile radius...there are over 300 million people in this country and I'm pretty sure they all want great coverage. The majority can have it with Verizon Wireless as it has the most coverage of any wireless provider in this country.

I think you got me wrong, I have VZW as well. My comment was mocking AT&T's slogans. There is no doubt in my mind that VZW is the best network in America.

Best network + best customer service + (now) great phones (HTC Touch Diamond, Pro, Samsung Omnia) = #1...Verizon Wireless. End of discussion. No more debate. J.D. Power has spoken.

Lol you can't pay me to say Verizon has great phones. The Samsung OMNIA is already available on AT&T, just without 3g. That's the beauty with GSM phones, doesn't matter where they're released as long as they have a compatible radio they'll work in the US. They're just now getting a phone worth being on Verizon for in the Touch Pro, but as we all know Verizon nickels and dimes everything so have fun paying more than you would on another carrier. Other than those two phones what else is there that doesn't have a better counterpart?

If you call "the beauty with GSM phones" the ability to take top notch European phones and use them on a sub par network, then your perception of beauty is quite flawed. I am not sure if you are aware, most likely not, but you can do the same with Verizon. If you can afford to purchase a CDMA phone from South Korea (their phones are as good, if not better than European phones), then you can activate it on the best network in America (as per JD Power). As long as VZW approves the device of course. Also, VZW is getting the Diamond and Pro as well as the Bold and Storm from Blackberry, which are all noteworthy device in my opinion.
