Hi, I might be moving to St. Louis, MO soon, and I currently have a Samsung A460. How is the coverage in the St. Louis area? Woud I be better off to switch to the Sanyo 4900, which I am doing if I stay in Columbus, OH. Or, should I wait until I get there and change providers as I am not under contract with Sprint? Any insight that you could give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve

St. Louis is one of their best markets. They won the 2001 JD Power award for St. Louis so I wouldn't worry too much.

Isn't Sprint headquartered in St Louis? Or is it KC?

It's Kansas City, MO. I was there for 3 days back in early 2001 and coverage was excellent everywhere I went. The hotel I stayed even had a Sprint tower right behind it !

Thanks guys, I appreciate the info. But, a new question. If I don't go to STL and I do stay in Columbus would it be a good idea to switch to the Sanyo 4900?

Any feedback appreciated.

It's pretty much a good idea to avoid the A460 no matter where you are. I had one and it couldn't even locate a signal where my old Sanyo 4700 could. I would get the 4900, but you will probably have to pay full price if you are still under contract.
