I will be traveling to Maine in Aug. (along the cost) will be going pretty far up also. I was wondering who has the best coverage in the area? I have Sprint, Verizon AC plan and my wife has Cingular Nation. Anyone have any experiance with these? What about Voicestream's coverage?

Thanks
Josh

I was in Maine about 6 months ago with Cingular in different areas from Bangor to Augusta and did not have any problems along I-95 as well as small roads like Rt 3, 202, etc.

I think VS has coverage up through Portland and Augusta, but not much more....

Soon SPCS and VZW will open up the port corridoor after FCC decides on where cellsite placement will take place.

Sprint has good signal over there too. But the fact that they will get the market only means nothing more than a company name change from the end user point of view.

With bringing all 3 of your phones you should get good coverage

I know of a friend who lives here in maryland but goes to college in waterville, and she has the at&t reigonal advantage plan (using a nokia 5165) and never has problems with coverage or sound quality. Maybe this will help you.
