Just curious- if you're so happy with AT&T, why did you jump ship to Verizon in the first place? I switched from Verizon to AT&T and have regretted it ever since. Once my 2 year contract is over I will be porting back to VZW. I have a lot more failed and dropped calls with AT&T and the call quality is not as clear. Just my opinion. > Yay, GOOD RIDDANCE VERIZON! I finally got my Blackjack II after sorely > missing my old Blackjack I.

Maybe you should have looked at all the independent studies of coverage, dropped calls, and call quality before you switched and got locked into a 2 year contract. It's a lot easier these days to get a good idea about how good or bad a carrier is before getting stuck for two years. CDMA has always had better voice quality, due to the inherent way that CDMA works, as well as due to the better CoDecs. As to dropped calls, this varies by area. I've been in some areas where my phone on AT&T's network works just as well as my Verizon phone, and in areas where it's much worse. However the difference in coverage is now much less, ever since AMPS was turned off in many areas.

They'll release him, immediately, after his attorney sends them the letter about poor coverage and breach of trust. You DON'T have to take "NO SERVICE" up the a.s. >SMS <scharf.steven@geemail.com> wrote in news:6dEYj.2337$l97.409 >@flpi144.ffdc.sbc.com: [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >He's not "stuck" at all.

Is that what your imaginary lawyer did? > CDMA has always had better voice quality, due to the inherent way > that CDMA works, as well as due to the better CoDecs. Really? I've always thought CDMA sounded like absolute crap due to their overcompression. A good old GSM full-rate codec always sounded better. These days, however, in the interest of squeezing more calls in, lower- bitrate codecs are the norm on GSM as well, so that advantage has been lost. And frankly neither sounded as good as plain old FM analog cellphones, as long as you had sufficient signal strength to avoid static. I know all about the coverage. I never said the coverage was a problem. I have these issues with a strong signal in a good coverage area. I dont feel stuck in the contract either. I am fine with finishing my contract unlike many people who complain and complain like babies not getting their way. All the carriers have trouble spots with coverage, but thats why they give you a trial period. I let mine pass because I dont think 2 weeks is long enough to determine the long term quality of a service. I knew what I was signing and I am fine with it. >> I switched from Verizon to AT&T and have regretted it ever since. Once my >> 2 year contract is over I will be porting back to VZW.
