Thats what I am afraid of- I don't want to pay overage charges on data. Unlimited is nice with Sprint, Coverage great, price...eh. If there was a deal with At&t with unlimited data I think I would have gone, even with dropped calls- I don't really call people as much as I text or use web.

Re: Sprint... are you reading this?

You have dropped calls in Minnesota?

I'm in hilly San Diego... I can count the times I've dropped in the past 15 years on one hand... And I would argue that most of those were the fault of my Stupid little flip phone Samsung A460 or better well known as the Samsung POS.

Actually no dropped calls, well there is 10 seconds where I drive an alternate route home from work sometimes if I was visting family instead of going straight home. But I know when its coming up and sometimes it holds but It has never been an issue. The only other time I remember dropped calls/service is when I go to class in the basement or underground(concrete) at nearby campus, I have to shut off the phone or else it drains pretty fast within a 2hr lecture/bluetooth/wifi.
I assume I have good coverage because Verizon is huge where I live (Mankato) so I think roaming off their towers?
I know it sucks to complain but I still wonder what would be better- my choice of phone Windows Phone, or Ios and deal with dropped calls. OR Consistant coverage with very limited handsets- no 4G here(not a real issue for me.)
I use my phone for many things: Email/Text/Calls/Web/Music(alot)/hopefully sync with my car so I can just be rid of CDs/shopping(barcode scanner/management of schedule/health/budget... well you get the picture, its my hub for everything when I am on the go. My bro was nice enough to get me a laptop for Xmas so I don't need to beat on the web with my phone- but who knows if I had an updated phone with more capabilites...
sorry kinda long.
