ahhh the insurance claim how great. I was a store manager for Verizon and now for ATT ATT is better employee based thatn vzw was. Now get the insurance thing straight att will offer insurance on ever phone except the apple iphone due to apple stipulations on insurance on their handsets. No longer will that be a valid excuse

to above commenter accusing husband will lose job. You are uneducated and incorrect. Verizon Wireless and AT&T Mobility/Knowledge Ventures have what are called conflict of interest forms that all spouses who's spouse works for another wireless company must sing, stating that no internal secretes will be shared, if the before mentioned statement is violated then the individual would then be terminated.

Just to educate you all the main reason vzw went to mb for data is so they can roll out open access asap. Other carriers don't bill data @ minutes they bill them @ mb. Also the main reason vzw is going to use lte is that they want to be able to roll out global plans. How nice would this be for the international traveler? Pay this much a month and be able to use your phone all over the globe. This is where having vodafone as a part owner of vzw comes in real handy. Also for the at&t lady, it's clear that you fell for the at&t brainwash in the trainings you went to.

Lol. i cant believe i sat here and read every single one of comments. what kind of nerds are you people arguing over cell phone service? that's ridiculous, and thats coming from a Verizon employee. i mean i think cell phones are pretty cool and interesting too, but you geeks know way more than you should. however, i do commend you for going out and researching some of the useless information that you have come up with (even though some of you are wrong as all get out). my only question is, if you all are so smart, why cant the majority of you spell correctly?

I agree...You are all tools and a product of our screwed up society...While you whine and complain about your cell service the rest of the world is passing you by...Get outside, somewhere where you can't pick up a cell signal...and try to prioritize the things that really matter in your lives...pathetic. BTW...I have a sprint bb curve...I can answer/send emails, get/send txts, email pics of my kids to their grandparents...and guess what? It is about #79 on my list of priorities in my life. Every weekend I get out to canoe, kayak, camp, etc and I have no cell signal...it is awesome and puts perspective on life...Try it geeks, you may like it. Plus your pale, soft, tender bodies may toughen up a bit.

i myself am a verizon employee and just came from at&t and will not switch services because.. why the fuck for when the best cell phones go to at&t and where i live i get 3g. Honestly tried verizon out but the fact is i got the same service there data isnt the noticabbly faster. the phone line up sucks.. and plus i like being able to switch from phone to phone in a breeze and not deal with customer service to switch phones not to mention wait on the phone.. the choice is clear At&t rules!!

this is so fake. its just the bold thats been altered to look like it has a touch screen.

Actually your comments are innacurate in many forms, first off, the networks that sprint and verizon operate on are not 4g. Europe and Japan are being updated to 4G. 3 & 4G are opperated on a GSM platform where companies such as ATT, T-Mobile, Suncom, etc opperate on. Verizon and Sprint operate on a currenty faster network formed by TDMA. However 3/4 G networks are the next higher speed/quality networks, and are more advnaced than TDMA, hence why you see Japan using 3/4G GSM. As for who is bigger better etc, the companies are allways changing and failing, Verizon is in the process of buying out Altel, wich after they are done will cause them to beat ATT as the largest carrier in the United States. Sprint is one of the lowest on the ladder, they fall short on the list right now, and the company is not doing well, and they do not have international funds. T-Mobile for example is not one of the largest in the US, but typically holds the second place in the world as the largest, they just don't have the presence in the US yet. Please, if you are going to post in a blog, have at least some experience or real knowlege before spreading rumors and false information, and as allways do not make your biased choices based on tv commercials, start looking at third party resources such as jd powers or consumer reports.

I would like to know why the blackberry thunder won't be available for sprint customers because lately sprint came out with dumb phones that don't want probably and us sprint customers do deserve a high quality good phone like the blackberry thunder phone.... so sprint stop playing around and do what you need to do OK!!!!!!!!
