Default In Litchfield CT area????

I have been useing Sprint for a couple of years and thier coverage seems pretty good... but when my phone died for the 3rd time (all differnt issues) and Sprint was going to charge me full price I said FINE!

and switched (ported) over to AT&T wireless GSM last week

and well the phone is nice but most people can't hear me well while moving and it drops calls a lot :-(


I was thinking of porting back to Sprint - but don't really want to. How is Nextel (I asked in in a differnt post and was given some good info) but on the Torrington area does it drop many calls and what is the typical voice quility?


I assume Cingular and T-Mobile is the same as AT&T (same network - no?)



Thanks
John

Go back with Sprint. Make sure you get a Sanyo phone. People can bash SPCS all they want but they are pretty darn good in CT.

You have your Pride. Once you left there's no coming back. T-Mobile, Cingular only share in NY Metro; so They and ATTWS don't share in CT.

Jones,
Cingular does have an agreement with ATT to utilize their towers in Litchfield County without a roaming fee.
I'm not sure about ATT utilizing Cingular.

Only in their TDMA system system.

Jones,

I noticed that my GSM phone all of a sudden started saying Cingular Extend in the Litchfield area, was concerned about roaming fees, and spoke with a Cingular employee that worked at the company owned store inside the Torrington CT Wal-Mart and he told me that they received an e-mail from coprorate telling about an agreement that went through that allows Cingular to utilize ATT towers in Litchfield county without any roaming fees.
