Do you have a 32K SIM card or 64K SIM card? or do you have TDMA? i know they're slowly phasing out TDMA and 32K SIM card....in favor of the 64K

Yes nextel sucks. I went to New Hampshire, on top of a mountian and the nextel was the only phone that worked, no other cells worked. So nextels work in the middle of nowhere when you dont need them , but dont work when you need them.

like someone said maybe their not using the cingular towers anymore. i know for a fact that cingular has alot of towers, last year a company i worked for had a contract with them to do electrical service upgrades on all of their towers in NJ. i personally had a hand in at least 3-4 of them around here. maybe they sold them?

that probably doesnt have a say in whether they are a good service provider there because maybe they dont claim to be available there :\
i have tmobile and i have no complaints... only time i lose signal is when im up in upstate new york in between mountains

all of my friends that had nextels never had a good thing to say about them, 90% of them switched over to another carrier when their contract was up. the "please wait while your nextel subscriber is located" message is the most annoying thing ever!
