[nndl] Re: [NNADL] t-mobile reception--comments anyone

used to have t-mobile and reception was very iffy. we live @ north loop & guadalupe. they would drop our calls ALOT. daily in fact. we switched to sprint about 6 months ago and have been VERY happy with the reception, the customer service, the rate plans and the phones (i have an LG w/ flip out keyboard that totally rules!).

which doesn't seem terribly fair to me. The sad reality is that the
city doesn't really have room or demand for that many Hyde Parks, and in
order to achieve this status, we'd have to be willing to pony up the
