NEP, the local phone company has now put in 40some(?) towers in the area, using GSM service. from what I hear the coverage is now very good in this recently wide open dead space hole. But, as of now, the only roaming agreement that they have is with Cellular One. So, apparently, if you are on T-mobile or Cingular you can not roam on their towers. Which is a bummer for me since I'm on Cingular. But, we may soon be switching to Cellular One. Mike
That's true they have Better Coverage than any Carrier in that area. You can roam on them if you roam too much they will inquire about it. Did you check their coverage Map?
Hopefully Cingular & T-Mobile will work out a roaming agreement with them, especially if this is a really bad area for other carriers.
Hopefully, but why they are Showing Cingular as their National Roaming Partner may still be in the works.
