What's your point! T-Mobile overall hasn't proven to be a reliable company as far as providing the best reception possible. In fact, the worst since they keep much of their coverage to the major cities and could careless about rural areas except for the major highways for their city customers. NW Indiana is mostly flatland and their coverage is spotty. Cingular and AT&T provide slightly better coverage. Verizon and Sprint provide the best coverage for my area. And NO I don't work for the wireless industry. My best experience has been with Verizon Wireless and intend to stay with them as long as possible. At least CDMA's been around long enough to be well built. T-Mobile never really tried to build up GSM and Cingular and AT&T waited too long to get on the GSM bandwagon. They're playing catchup and I believe it'll be several years before GSM is on the same level of coverage as CDMA. At least Cingular is trying to cover some rural areas with GSM as T-Mobile doesn't want to serve those areas, or their coverage maps wouldn't keep most of the coverage to the major cities and major highways, as their maps indicate.
