Dobson also has towers in...

Dobson has towers in northern michigan also. This includes the Oscoda area, Traverse, Mackinaw city, the U.P (ironton and near the minnesota border), pelliston,east tawas, the thumb (almost complete coverage),midland, and alpena. In certain areas of the U.P they are the ONLY GSM provider.

Also don't forget centennial wireless has extensive coverage in michigan. I personally prefer Centennial because AT&T has a lot of reception problems due to tower layouts and terrain.

Cellular One (Dobson) is the only GSM provider for the ENTIRE UP, and its Iron Mountain, Iron River, and Ironwood, there is no ironton =P

I do agree that its great news, as cellone isnt very quick to bring new services.

Sorry ...I live in lower michigan...so sue me for not knowing EXACTLY . That aside this will be good because that may mean more coverage for all GSM users in michigan that are either on AT&T or go with companies that have roaming agreements with AT&T (centennial wireless *cough cough*)

I've had coverage (better coverage) on St. Joseph's Island and coverage in Sault Ste. Marie on NPI/Dobson, which currently saves me from Canada roaming.
In the past, when I was on AT&T Wireless, I had the North America package add on, which made Canada roaming/LD really cheap.
