I found the article interesting. But I find that many times, the
experience is city dependent. I actually live in Denver, but all of my
family is in Goodyear. Until recently I would be in Phoenix 4-5 times a
year, and could really see a difference. Here in Denver, my AT&T
service blew away my wife's Verizon coverage. Far better coverage,
fewer dropped calls, and faster data. So much so that now we are all on
AT&T.
When I was in Goodyear & Litchfield Park, my AT&T was crap, garbage,
completely useless. All of my family there (mom, sister and her family)
have all switched to Verizon and been very happy. But when they came up
here last year, their phones were crap, garbage, and completely useless.
So, the moral of the story is, nation wide numbers are great if you are
a cross country trucker, or travel often for business. But for the vast
majority of people, the only statistic that really matters is the ones
for your city.
