Yea, your just going to want to try it out and then cancel before the 30 days is up if the coverage isn't up to par in your area.

Don't think this was mentioned but if you do decide to switch to Sprint it might be worth checking out the Bargain/For Sell section for a SERO plan. They are really cheap ($30 for 500 minutes, $50 for 1250 minutes) and include everything Sprint has to offer except TV and their Sprint Navigation program (easily remedied by a third-party GPS program). I switched over from ATT and would never look back. I would not know about the coverage in your area, but I have coverage almost anywhere I go on along the West Coast.

And, as people have already mentioned, Sprint does have roaming contracts with Verizon. When I am roaming, voice works as it should, however it should be noted that sometimes when I am roaming data will not work at all. I'm pretty sure it has to do with who's tower I am using and the agreements they have with Sprint.
