Hi Bruce.
Thanks, I did check that and was helpful but was hoping to get a
general "feel" from other users how well the service is while driving
about the countryside :-)
They do have a pretty good interactive map though so I just followed
it along the normal routes and it appears there is a dead spot on the
way to Abilene but I think Cingular has this as well..After all rural
Texas is pretty vast and we can't expect coverage everywhere..My first
experience with Voice stream was on the same route. We were between
Brownwood and Abilene (west Texas) and saw several people stopped
along the road on their cell phones. Seconds later we saw why they
were calling, ahead and to the west was a Tornado! I picked up my
Voicestream phone and it had "no service" Seemed others had service
but I have no idea what carrier they had..This is probably the same
place that the map shows no coverage..Maybe they had something
analog..
Thanks again!
John
