    I have found outstandingly better service through SPCS than through Mextel
    and I have lived in NYC my whole life. If you want to try it out I recommend
    getting a Sanyo phone as a first, thay have the best reception from what I
    heard.

    Can only offer that service in lower Manhattan and throughout
    Queens from the 59th street bridge, through Flushing, Kew Gardens,
    Jamaica -- rock solid. In fact it's improved so much over the past 7
    years I've been with them, that I really can't think of any
    significant problems I've had lately anywhere. I have only one friend
    on T-mobile, and his service isn't as good when he's in town,
    particularly in Brooklyn. But that's not scientific - it could be his
    phone, software or whatever.

    I think you meant switching over to Sprint PCS. You are already on one
    of the PCS carriers. T-Mobile only has PCS licenses. They are running
    2g gsm on it instead of the 3g CDMA of Sprint PCS.

    I'm in NYC and NJ a lot. The service is quite solid. Five years ago,
    there were a fair number of dead zones, but they all appear to have been
    filled in, at least the ones where I tend to go.

    I live in Florida and have lived in Fort Lauderdale. When I lived there,
    near Sunrise, and now when I travel through out South Florida I have had
    great sprintpcs signal. Works great down i-75 and i-95.

    Sprint has good coverage outside from what I hear in NYC. They are ok in some subways and underground areas, Verizon is the king in NYC.

    T-mobile is 100% PCS network using GSM digital
    Sprint PCS is 100% PCS network using CDMA digital
    The best provider gives you a plan with the minutes you need at the right price. The coverage that you need to make calls all the time.
