Off topic, but I think you might have a virus, malebomb. I received about
four e-mails from you with "Microsoft" updates.

Nextel should. When they're showing the Verizon PTT at work in their
commercials. Or that's what I would have done. Spent the legal fees on
advertising instead.

I don't know where you've been, but VZW has converted their entire
network to 1xRTT as of this summer. There are only a very few
scattered exceptions that pertain to recent acqusitions (specifically
Shentel and Price) that are not yet 1xRTT. >95% of the VZW network
has been upgraded.

You should start studying the latest coverage maps and stop spewing
mis-information. As explained earlier, the VZW data network and the
entire VZW network are virtually identical, save a very few exceptions
for recent acquisitions. Now do your homework and give it a rest
already.

check maps and you will see that ,coverage for say ptt is not the same
as verizon national coverage,national map includes roaming coverage
areas.but it is still a bigger area than other ptt provider.

When I get home tonight I will post the PTT coverage map, and the
America's choice coverage map.. They are different.

Agreed to a point- and look at the holes on the national coverage map
where it doesn't cover- not even close to national coverage. And it
certainly doesn't offer better coverage than Nextel. As to where I've
been- been getting the facts- give it a try sometime.

I think they considered this, but had to scratch the plan- the
commercials are only 30 seconds long.
