Shhhh. Don't say that around here. Most of this site has been brainwashed into thinking CDMA is somehow technologicaly superior to GSM, and you might incite a riot, lol.

You don't hear about it on GSM either. You hear about it on AT&T because of the way they mismanaged their network. But right before they got the iPhone AT&T was the network with the least amount of dropped calls. Don't you remember all those stupid commercials about it a few years ago?

Incidentally, Sprint is just as known for bad service as AT&T is. AT&T has problems in a couple cities, but the majority of their network is awesome. Sprint has problems in lots of places.

So glad to say that I've had like 3 or 4 dropped calls in like 6 years.
