Re: Annoy? Already with Verizon for my personal phone.
My work phone/blackberry is AT&T though. Can't even begin to tell you how many times it has dropped calls or made people sound like they're underwater.
And it's not like I'm out in the middle of nowhere. I live in New Jersey. |

| Right? I had Verizon for 14 years with no issue.. I honestly didn't even know what a dropped call was like. I made the reluctant jump for the iPhone 3G and I get dropped calls DAILY. I'm not in a huge market, but Fresno, CA is over 500,000 people and then some. It's a joke.
In my opinion the mobile space is much more ruthless and stifling and cares less about customer satisfaction than any caps and traffic shaping seen in the cable/landline area.
I mean how in the hell does a company get away with selling "unlimited" mobile internet access but issues a 5GB cap?
We're supposed to pay $60/mo for home internet access, another $35-40/mo for cripled mobile access, endure "peak time" limits on voice, complete ass rape on text messages and everythings cool? If complete blind greed wasn't the obvious forefront of these companies strategies maybe a service like Skype wouldn't even exist as the need for the innovation wouldn't be there in the 1st place. //end rant |

I suspect you're on a 2G blackberry.
I had similar (garbled calls) issue on 2G in LosAngeles until I hacked the codec, and eventually got a 3g phone.

I suspect you're right, but Verizon with CDMA never had an issue in the years I've been with them. |

Err yeah that used to be true.
Now we have Quick Check and Kohls.
It's sorta the middle of nowhere but even in some parts of NYC I've had problems with ATT coverage. |
