-Verizon was #1 in 17 out of 20 markets surveyed (in 2 of those 17 =
they
were tied with T-Mobile)
-Alltel was #1 in 3 markets (Tampa, Cleveland, and Seattle)
-Sprint was last in 19 out of 20 markets (AT&T was last in
Minneapolis-Saint Paul, and Sprint was 2nd to last).
I really thought that the declining number of AMPS handsets would =
hurt
Verizon's ratings, but apparently that was not the case. Even with =
most
users having digital-only phones, Verizon is still far better than =
AT&T,
Sprint, or T-Mobile.
I wonder how long Sprint can continue in business as an independent
company. They have the worst coverage, a poor selection of handsets, =
and
their Wi-Max plan has gone nowhere. Some say Verizon should acquire
them, but I don't think that Verizon wants or needs them.=20
