my experiance is that tmobile sucks in our area. I dont get service in alot of areas where everyone else does and i get service in places no one else does such as speculator.

I dont live in the albany area but I have had the same experience. Even when I travel to visit family or go other places I always seem to have shittier service than my friends with verizon. I think for texting I pay 5 dollars per month for 400 texts, i dont text much though.

do not at all cost get tmobile.  i used to have sidekick, sk 2, and sk 3 for 4 years,  it seems to get worst as the year goes by, i get no service inside any buildings, but outside i do.  another thing that happens a lot is the server will shut down for like a day or 2 days for no reason so i cant text anyone so i got fed up with it and got sprint and it now kickass...

no. i have a sidekick with only the tmobile sidekick plan, and have a verizon cell phone for making calls (it's on a family plan so it's cheaper to keep it instead of adding voice to my sidekick)
