    Wow, I've been wondering who was doing all the work around here over the last 12-18 months. I just assumed it was t-mobile or a new entrant. I guess I don't have any first had experience with C, um at&t, just hear...drop(say), or is that an ocean I hear?

    I just can't believe their service was so bad in the metro to "need" all of these upgrades.

    Now, if only verizon would realize their service stinks in half of these same locations, and puts the same type of money where the competition is, we'll be looking good around here.

    Only Cingular and VZW makes PR about new cell sites,
    and there's Many Here who posts for
    VZW(they don't really tell about their Location
    except it's in this state) than Cingular.


    If you're worst, you can be better.
    If you're Better, you can be the Best.

    So it's always for better or worst
    that they be wed.
