I had an Alltel Titan for 2+ years and I just got an Imagio. Even though Alltel and Verizon are the same company now, the tower technology is not. Verizon is no longer upgradeing Alltel software/hardware so data services are getting spotty. The voice is ok but not much else. The phone will worlk on a Verizon network but they are slowly transitioning away from the Alltel tower/hardware/software in the their network. Even with my new phone on a Verizon plan, since my cell number was an Alltel number, I can not get certain features like visual voicemail until later this year when they have fully ported the Alltel network into their own.
