Verizon Wireless invests more than any other carrier in it's network every year (around 8 billion). That alone says quite a bit.

I would take Sprint's network with it's lesser coverage footprint to AT&T's because CDMA is a more reliable technology.
i am loving verizon but CDMA is not technology superior as of yet. Currently they are both equal in technology standards, even though CDMA has more potential. CDMA is its pitfalls and so does gsm. Keep in mind also the rest of the world uses gsm. China/japan whose call qualities are amazing use gsm. It really depends solely on the quality of the carrier not their network choice.


BUT LTE is the newest and fastest tech. thats the future with cdma/gsm backups.

[QUOTE=YoZUpZ,Nov 18 2009, 04:18 AM] The reason why AT&T is suing Verizon is because in the "map", Verizon left out AT&T's EDGEnetwork, for those of you who don't know, the EDGE network IS part of the 3G standard. On the map that Verizon ran in its ads, Verizon shows only UMTS coverage, and not TDMA (EDGE) coverage... Since TDMA coverage is part of the 3G standard, AT&T is suing Verizon for advertising false information... sounds simple and clear enough to me
