Leaving the i910(verizon) for touch pro 2 (sprint)

So the title says it all but does anyone have any insight on sprint coverage and the touch pro 2?

Sprint can be either fantastic or sucky. I found that if you are mainly in a larger city or along interstates their coverage is wonderful. However, if you are in more rural areas I wouldn't hold your breath.

Our towers, their towers - do you really see more than one tower in any particular place? These companies are 'renting' space on towers and I've lived in a dead zone of less than a bar with Sprint. Switched to Verizon and got just a little more signal. I've stayed with Verizon because I felt like I had more coverage in rural areas, but honestly - you know this coverage stuff is just a big scam of marketing to blindside us all into spending money to switch carriers. THEY'RE ALL THE SAME TOWERS and probably still owned by MCI!

Re: Leaving the i910(verizon) for touch pro 2 (sprint)

yea i agree... Anyways i was paying 130 a month with verizon and with sprint im only paying 30... the coverage is just a bit weaker than verizon, i havent noticed much of a difference... But for a 100 a month its worth staying with sprint.
