Verizon Wireless Experiences?

Share via Twitter Share via Facebook Share via Linkedin Share via Reddit

So my AT&T (now Cingular) wireless contract is up on the 20th of this month, and I’m contemplating reupping with them versus a move to Verizon. The pros to staying with Atingular are better phones, more than adequate service (except in NYC), and better nationwide bandwidth (EDGE is available pretty much everywhere). The pros for Verizon are better overall coverage, potential for a great mobility option with EV-DO, and most importantly – virtually everyone I know now is on Verizon, so mostly free calls.

Any thoughts or recommendations on making the switch or staying?

Update: One other thing I meant to ask – any Linux desktop users have experiences pro/con with any of the new Cingular or Verizon phones? While it’s not critical, if one phone is able to connect to Gnome Pilot or some such it’d be a plus.
