Cell Phone Coverage

At&t has a series of TV commercials currently airing. These ads promote all the good things about AT&T’s cell phone network verses Verizons network. Of course, Verizon has completive TV ads showing the opposite. Verizons TV ad shows their networks coverage map with more cell phone network coverage, lots more, that at&t’s map. Funny thing, at&t’s ad never shows their map. At&t’s ad promotes the fact that you can surf the web AND talk at the same time with your web enabled phone. But if your call gets dropped, or you have “no service”, who cares that you can surf and talk at the same time.
In another TV ad, at&t goes on to tell you about their roll over minutes, and how Verizon does not have that feature. If you don’t have any coverage, your rolls over minutes are not going to matter. Plain and simple, coverage is everything. All the features in the world are not going to mean a thing if you do not have cell phone coverage. Isn’t that what cell phones are for, mobility? If you still can’t figure out which cell phone company to use, try Sprint, their network coverage is better than both at&t or Verizon.
