Re: Means nothing.

Trying to remember the last time Sprint dropped a call for me. I think it's happened once in the past six months.

I can't remember the last time a had a dropped call. But I am a Verizon Wireless customer.

I have to say that Sprint has been pretty good in terms of not dropping calls on the corporate side of things. The recently acquired iPCS territory where my parents (Champaign-Urbana, Illinois) has some issues, but hopefully Sprint will fix things with that network.

I'm a pretty satisfied Verizon customer, but I have had my fair share of dropped calls.

Not often, but it does happen.

I have to say, that is about the almost annoying thing in the world. Talking into a cell phone that dropped a call while you still think someone is listening.

I'm a Verizon customer that has dropped calls all of the time.

At home we had a strong US Cellular signal, but almost no Verizon signal. That's OK, we can roam on US Cellular albeit without EVDO.

Everything was fine until recently when Verizon finally got wind that they were losing a lot of customers to US Cellular's better coverage in the area. They have done something to slightly improve their coverage - now my phone locks onto the extremely poor Verizon signal instead of roaming on the nice strong US Cellular signal.

Now chunks of conversations drop out and we lose calls constantly. This happens to neighbors also. And the signal is so weak that EVDO doesn't work.

We'll be switching to US Cellular soon also.

I'm on Sprint myself. I've had some dropped calls before. In my lap, on the floor.

One phone I had was a slide phone, I had to set it up to not end call when it got slid closed, use the end button instead.
