Coverage maps

Hello everyone!

Does Cingular have coverage maps on their site? I can't seem to find them
if they do. If not is there some other place that has good maps for
carriers?

Thanks!

Any idea how current these are? I am especially interested in the EDGE
coverage.

There are no "good" maps. Cingular does have a small squintavision maps.

True, but they're not terribly current.

Hardly a current one in there, they are all the very small scale drawn
by marketing worthless maps.

Really? By Marketing? Care to cite your source, or did you just tell
another lie?

Well, every single map in any particular directory has the following
fine print at the bottom...

"This map reflects rate plan coverage for plans available after January
27, 2002. Map depicts an approximation of outdoor coverage. Map may
include areas served by unaffiliated carriers, and may depict their
licensed area rather than an approximation of the coverage there.
Actual coverage area may differ substantially from map graphics, and
coverage may be affected by such things as terrain, weather, foliage,
buildings and other construction, signal strength, customer equipment
and other factors. Cingular does not guarantee coverage. Charges will
be based on the location of the site receiving and transmitting the
call, not the location of the subscriber. Future coverage, if depicted
above, is based on current planning assumptions, but is subject to
change and may not be relied upon."


That, and all the maps I looked at are already three years old - hence,
worthless.

Thank you for proving Scott a worthless cellular shill.

THE MAPS are in large part, WORTHLESS

I have to wonder if that directory is actually a boneyard which has yet
to meet Ms. Shredder.

He did what? All I saw was a bunch of boilerplate terms and conditions. It
said nothing about Marketing creating the maps. You still lied.

the lies and deceptions you frequenty post here and in other groups.

Really? I'm looking at a 10 year old map of my neighborhood. It shows my
house to be in exactly the right place. Its not worthless.

If coverage hasn't significantly changed in an area, why create a new map?
Some of the maps included in the link were as new as a month ago.

Age doesnt matter, a 1" = 50 miles scale makes the map worthless.
