Can anyone tell me if I am the only one having major dropped calls with Nextel. You can't seem to talk to a single sales rep that will give you the same answer twice. Sprint together with Nextel is far from it. They are not even in the same play book.

I know here in NJ their DC has been going down hill and a lot of people aren't happy with it. We had problems with the calling side as well & last month the County went with the ic502 Buzz. So far it has improved the calling end and I know at my house the DC has improved slightly inside.

I used to have Nextel, and it was really the worst cell phone company that I've ever had. All I ever experienced with it was "Call Failed. Try Again Later." This happened all the time. With no other cell phone company would your phone ever do that. Seriously, pretty much every cell phone company is better than Nextel. I really don't know why Sprint doesn't just give everyone who has Nextel a CDMA phone and shut down the iDEN network.

Just the opposite here in Los Angeles -- my Nextel works fine in many places where my wife's Verizon doesn't.

I bought a Boost Mobile phone once to try out Nextel's service in my area. After just one day of service I sent the phone back. Nextel's service was just really poor in my area and the text messaging on Nextel is horrible! I've personally not seen one happy Nextel customer and they seem to have a poor network about everywhere.

I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MY REP THAT NEXTELS TOWERS ARE FULL AND THIS IS WHY WE EXPERIENCE THE DROP CALLS. THE HYBRID PHONES WERE MADE TO FREE UP SOME OF THAT SPACE JUST BEAR WITH THEM IT IS GOING TO TAKE TIME BUT IN WILL GET BETTER IN THE FUTURE
