Default Best Service for Orlando?

Hi all,
I'm trying to decide on a wireless carrier and phone to be used primarily in the Orlando area, but also with coverage for all of Florida, West Georgia and East Alabama. I would like GSM (to work on programming for WAP/WML applications), but it seems like it just isn't here yet from a coverage standpoint. I also have corporate discounts from AT&T (15%) and SprintPCS (25%), but I'm more concerned with good coverage/calling plan than using one of those carriers. As I make about $40 worth of land-line long distance calls per month, I would like to use the wireless for that instead. My experience with wireless service is limited to Nextel, which I had for work about 4 years ago. I really liked the two-way functionality, but at the time there were a lot of "dead" areas. That probably has changed.
Any input is greatly appreciated!

Sprint PCS recently just introduced some new rate plans that are quite attractive. That in addition to your 25% discount avaible from Sprint PCS and the fact that I have heard Sprint has good coverage in Florida you seriously might want to give them a try.

Sprint PCS

I have heard nothing but good things about Sprint PCS in the Orlando area, and their coverage maps back it up as well. In south florida, things aren't so great, but I have friends in the orlando area and that area is a popular place for Sprint PCS. Alabama area i can't really comment too much, but if you're going to the alabama area than give sprint a shot throughout the 2 week trial period because right now they have some of the better plans available for the holiday season and some decent phones for 50-100 bucks after rebate![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
