Edge/Verizon/US Cellular do not work well on Gecko road unless you are on a hill.

thanks
you may need to have your software updated on your sprint phone to take advantage of new towers/signals. Bring it into sprint and have them check to determine if yours has the most recent software on it. If not, have them update the phone.

you folks can update your phone yourself by calling *228
just make sure you are in your own home area/on your own home tower
pretty simple.....takes about a minute....doesnt cost a thing
should work for the majority of you........all depends on if your company has an agreement with the company who owns
the tower..........politics

Cingular/T-mobile (same network) work great all over the dunes, Gecko to the washes, 78 to 8.
