Re: rip off LOL, man only if you were here in my store to see how many people stop using metroPCS after a month of wasting their money just to switch to boost. Coverage is a downside for metroPCS. |

kudos:2 | Boost's network sucks worse than MetroPCS's for data, and Boost doesn't have as cool a selection of phones as MetroPCS. |

Wyoming, Montana, North and South Dakota get the "no service at all in 4 contiguous states" award.
KEY: Purple Pins = Coverage |

said by hottboiinnc:and with that Most of Ohio is dead space if you zoom in. I think the point here is that their name "metro" is a clever way to say:
"Not available if you don't live on an Interstate Highway..."
This map actually makes their network look more ubiquitous than it actually is. Last week they had a clearer map that really showed how "geographically specific" their network really is. 
EDIT: I just checked my home area. Guess what? No coverage. The Salmon/pink color means future expansion. |

KEY: Purple Pins = Coverage Being a "national" carrier has NEVER been Revol/MetroPCS/Cricket's business model. In exchange for the world's longest range cordless phone (not a cellphone), you get much cheaper and better plans. You trade suburban/rural coverage for much cheaper urban coverage. |

True, as long as people understand that. You make a very valid point. |
