I don't think that's a fair assessment of CDMA technology. I have 2 AT&T 3G phones and while the EDGE service has dead spots in my basement, the CDMA service provided by Verizon for my work cell phone works perfectly.
It certainly has to do with the signal strength outside to begin with. Sprint service running on 1900 Mhz (I believe) does not work well at all in any building I am in unless I have full bars outside to begin with. Verizon will always be a TAD better because they are at 800 Mhz or close to that which penetrates buildings a bit better.
