said by chlen:Sprint has free roaming including data, so if I am not on Sprint I am on VZ. Sprint has the benefit of two networks. So yeah, technically they are the most dependable.
Their own Sprint only network, is probably not as intense as VZ, but in my area they are great, and Sprint's data cannot be beat. I have a consistent 1.5/500 connection tethered to the pre.
For the price and phone selection, Sprint can't be beat. Samsung moment is on the way, Hero, Pixi, HTC, Pre, BB, etc... and none are locked down with crap software.
Right now Sprint has not only the most dependable network, but also the most friendly to computer geeks like myself.
They have time and time gone out of their way in effort to up their customer service, and their practical approach to problems have made it a great carrier. They are expected to be out of the red quite soon, Dan Hesse has been doing well.
They are far from perfect but they seem to be the only company interested in building out, getting phones, and trying to do something for customers.
In the light of ATT and VZ, they look fantastic. (TMobile is not really a player on mch of the east coast).
Umm So does Verizon, but it's not like they need in market roaming.
