Had a Nextel since ’97. The coverage has always been growing since then. Threw in a boost chip when they came out and still great reception, texting, and messages (few messages claimed to be sent that I didn’t get but the empoyee could have been covering his but) Bought a boost phone, (i776) again, no problems! Now trying to decide between the 2g with DC or the 3g without Blackberry. It is an extra $10/mo for the 3g and I lose DC, is it worth it? Thanks!

I’ve had it since may 2009 with nothing but problems. Voicemail mixups (I can often check others messages, and callers to me sometimes get a different mailbox??? wtf?), texting plagues (delays, and any messages sent to me while I am out of service or powered off are never delivered and lost. no queuing? ), and the iden phones often have bad call quality, even while reporting full signal. With the i776 I have, putting your finger near the antenna knob halves your signal strength. I’m getting out as soon as I can pick a replacement carrier.

Lets hope that with all the new subscibers that they use that money to upgrade their network. If they get their network capacity problem figured out other companies will have to really change their tactics when it comes to pricing. Maybe boost should start using hybrid phones.
