Cingular.

Great coverage. So-so customer service.

I am using the Samsung P-777, great phone. I hate flipe phones, so the slider is cool. However this phone seriously lacks. It has no blue tooth. If that doesn't bother you then, it is great. It has an Mp3 player, and a 1.3MP camera, which works quite well.

 

my wife has that phone and loves it. unfortunately, cingular doesn't sell that one anymore.

 

yeah...I dropped my p-777 in a puddle the other day while getting my wheels from Cashis....it was a nasty murky puddle....I could see it down in the bottom of the puddle because it was glowing weird colors from the water getting into it. :-P It works fine, but the screen has a little moisture in it now....I am considering using my insurance to get a new phone, but I am not sure what crap phone they would stick me with, now that phone isn't being sold. :-/

 

That's the great thing about GSM. Buy the phone anywhere (as long as it's not carrier locked) and plop in your SIM.

 

I have verizon, it works well pretty much everyhwree except the mountains maybe and i have an LG8100 and i love it so far.... ive had good experiences with the higher end LG phones, i had my last one for over 2 years with 100's of drops and it still worked perfectly but is stay away from the cheaper lg phones

 

I'm beginning to think you're right, Alan. That, and no one lives/works up near where Deede and I are going to be living. Arg.

 

I thought you were going to be slightly south of Sac. Northern CA is pretty well covered by your major service providers.

 

Nope. And Beale is a black hole for everyone but Sprint and Nextel, apparently.

 

i got reception at beale. even out in the middle of the runway.

 

Oh, I didn't realize you were going to Beale... sorry


You better take some pics of the T-38's, U-2's, Global Hawk and SR-71 for us

 

(pic removed)

I fix U-2s for a living Oh crap, I derailed my own thread!

 

Verizon FTW. I had cingular and it sucked ***. I couldn't get reception in my own house. With Verizon, I've got full bars out on the edges of Elk Grove, up in the way back hills of Milpitas, out in Ione, out to Jackson, up in Tahoe. Everyfrikenwhere.

I have the Moto E815.

 

You're my new favorite person

 

I had Sprint at Beale for a few months in 2001. It sucked *** then I went back to AT&T service and I could receive calls literally anywhere on Beale. No problems anywhere on the flightline. I got reception in the stairwell going to the command post. Things may have changed now for Sprint out there.
