When we people finally realize this? Sprints coverage and deployment puts Verizon to shame. |

Hmm, $80 a month Verizon service that has horrible ToS, and limits you to 5 gig a month (ok $60 if you're a voice customer).
Or, $50 (Sero) a month with Sprint for truly unlimited services, and wide-open ToS...plus they have an extremely large (and rapidly expanding) Revision A network with very promising results (people have broken 2 meg down, and have attained 800K up with latency around 90-150ms). I might also add that you don't need a voice plan for this either.
Once Sprint has launched EVDO Revision A nationwide (projected to be sometime in the middle to end of next year), I hope they smash Verizon....
Then, once Revision B (even faster downloads and uploads, and it's optimized for VoIP and other low latency applications) starts being deployed by Sprint, well, it'll be all over for competition between Sprint and Verizon when it comes to mobile broadband....Oh wait, the competition is already over; I forgot. |

| reply to Jon Geb You are obviously out of your head. Although I agree that Verizon has been a bit hard to deal with regarding their limited "unlimited" service, their coverage and quality of service are light years ahead of Sprint's. Having been a customer of both personally and also having hundreds of my users using carriers from the likes of Cingular, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon, and a few other lesser know carriers, Verizon's data service cannot be beat. |

of Flint Michigan.....God Stinkin Bless Ya.
However, some of us don't live in Flint. And even those that do are now wintering in Fla, where Verizon was first and in too many places is the only service.

said by Jon Geb :When we people finally realize this? Sprints coverage and deployment puts Verizon to shame. Verizon coverage is MUCH better than Sprint in the West. I have solid digital coverage with Verizon in places where I had NOTHING with Sprint. -- Don't touch that, it's the history eraser button you fool! |
