Boost Coverage in NJ Good or Bad? Wireless Web good?


Hello I'm wondering how the coverage is in New Jersey/South Jersey for boost mobile particularly in kendall park/franklin park, princeton and plainsboro. Any really spotty areas?

Also how is the wireless web? Can you surf all the wap sites? how is the aim instant messaging? are you charged for sending an instant message? .20 a day is way better than being charged by the kb and tmobile's free wap is gone now so I'm very curious as to how boost mobile's wireless wap is like. I would buying boost mobile as a backup phone and mostly for the wireless web. Any info is very much appreciated!

thanks!

boost uses nextel towers, do you know how the nextel service is in that area, I live in south jersey, more south that what you are speaking of but I have not trouble with my service (nextel). I use wap all of the time and same with aim. works good for me, I would not have any other service. if you have any specific questions pm me or aim me at mzkmobile

Thanks so much for your reply! I just got boost mobile earlier today and I was extremely surprised at how wide the coverage really is. It worked great at my apartment and tmobile doesn't even get a signal there but only in one spot in the whole place! It worked very well where I work and all through the places I usually travel. The signal bars went down in plainsboro inside where my sis lives but I still got service and I could still acess the wireless web there. I'm very happy with the wap as well especially after tmobile to go prepaid discontinued their free wap. I have at&t/cingular prepaid but they charge .02 per kilobyte which is just nuts. I can't think of any other prepaid cellular service that charges a small fee daily for unlimited wap like boost mobile does. It may be .20 but I will happily take that since I dont even get charged for aim or yahoo messenging. If only they had free nights/weekends but im primarily using this for the wap. I almost wish my friends had nextel/boost so I could try out the walkie talkie (dc) feature.

I need some good wap portals and good free ringtone services so if anyone could direct me in the right direction or to a link in this forum? my internet is acting up at the moment. thanks so much again

a good wap protal is http://www.teknidude.com/wap/index.asp this gives you access to many different site and is catigorized very nicely. there is not currently a website offering free ringtones. the best thing for that is to buy a data cable and I can tell you where to download all of the necessary software to upload ringtones, games wallpapers all for free.

Thank you for the link! I use teknidude all the time now BUT how do I set up net alerts for aim and yahoo messenger so when someone sends me a message it will come to my i730 as a Net Alert? is this possible? I could have sworn I read about someone doing it.

also is there a wap url for cellphoneforums.net?

once you log into AIM, every message that you recieve should come in as a new net alert. I am not sure about the yahoo but it should work the same.

I tried this but maybe I was logged into aim on the boost mobile web instead of going through teknidude and i got no net alert when someone said hi to me or even when their away message came on. Anyway I sent myself a aim net alert from teknidude and am logged in right now....sooo would someone be willing to IM me on aim so I can try this out? my aim sn is candyluvsmovies

thank you!
