SOCIAL: the big question

[Greg Zhovreboff]

Yikes. What a thread!

It's funny though because basically it sounds like AT&T v. Sprint. As  
for coverage - especially if you live in the Mission - AT&T f**king  
sucks. Like, a lot. I live at 14th & Guerrero and there is (literally)  
a 4' x 4' square patch in my living room from which I can make calls.  
And even there it's sketchy. I had an iPhone (3 of them) and miss them  
dearly but they're not insureable under AT&T's coverage so after  
breaking my 3rd one, I opted for the Crackberry Bold. DON'T GET A  
BOLD!!! It's quite possibly the shittiest smartphone ever. And that's  
coming from someone who owned a first generation Samsung Blackjack.

My understanding was that - at least back in the day - T-Mobile simply  
leased AT&T's network. So it should be the same coverage. Has that  
changed? I believe CREDO is an mvno off the Spring network. That said,  
I've no idea about Sprint.

Good luck (and don't get a Bold)!
