TDMA service progressively seemed to suck more and more. For example, I could only get a two-way voice connection in one upstairs corner of my house and if I didn't move my head during the conversation. When I upgraded the phone (the old one fell out of a pocket and got run over by a car, the best thing that could have possibly happened to it), I was switched to Cingular (proper) and a GSM phone (a Motorolo RAZR), and my quality of service has become noticably better. Just my data point. -- Russell Senior ``I have nine fingers; you have ten.''
