I use both (Verizon from my employer and iPhone Personally) and Verizon does not rule in PA. Sorry, they are the NOTwork. And they are not all that great in N. NJ either.

They do have a good brainwashing campaign though.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21228380 Tue, 07 Oct 2008 11:58:28 EDT Re: Smart move by AT&T. http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21227633 tc1uscg :

Having Verizon Wireless is like having an ugly girlfriend who is always dependable but never does the back room stuff you want her to do.

Having sprint is like messing with a sexy model who to be honest... wont always be there for you..... but when she is..... god damn she will do anything and everything you want.

Having ATT "I-Phone" is like have a beautiful, smart and sophisticated woman but is stuck up like you cant believe and wants everyone to know it. She will do some of the back room stuff but is very prissy about it....

Personally I would suggest having Verizon for business and Sprint or ATT on the side but thats just me ;)....

HAHAHA! From day one, I've said that Paris Hilton ought to be the Celebrity Spokesperson for the iPhone. Like Paris Hilton, the iPhone brings no new or special talent, but it's a sex symbol.

No, they have a large selection of phones.
It comes and goes. Sometimes my "New Every Two" goes three years because they don't have any phones that I like. About my phone... 10 reasons why the Samsung i760 is better than the iPhone for business users.

AT&T's wireless network comes and goes as well. I tested AT&T Mobility just about a month ago. It's "just okay" to "spotty" here in Portland. VZW is much superior here.

Who else completely hates the 'red' interface. It's somewhat nice not having to relearn menus when you upgrade phones, but jeeze there is so much work that needs to be done on that sad platform..

There are quite a few phones being offered by Verizon's partners, it's just that they might as well all be the same model since the software all comes with the same feature killing locks in place..
I certainly do, although the newer interface (like on my Razr 2 V9m) is MUCH nicer.

No, they have a large selection of phones. Just not the iPhone, which has become a fashion statement by those who have to have the "IN Thing" like all their friends.
Exactly. My buddy left Verizon for AT&T and even he admits their service is awful, but he loves the iPhone so he is willing to put up with it. He wanted to throw his iPhone at AT&T when I told him Verizon was getting the iPhone and his current one won't work with them ... so he'd have to buy a new one if he wanted to switch back.

You forgot how Verizon loves to take feature rich phones and turn off half the cool things.
They can't do that to PDA style phones. On those they disable GPS so you have to use their product, but that's it.
