I agree it’s the best network (Verizon is my carrier for all of our mobile staff at work - we have people from WV, MD, MA, NJ, PA, etc.), but for a personal phone (which won’t get a company discount), it’s not worth the extra money and they don’t have a good selection of phones. They tend to get top phones (like the HTC One), WAY after it’s been released to the other carriers.
AT&T is my front runner right now also. It helps that there is a store literally across the road from work, should anything happen.
And I think you meant CDMA (Verizon/Sprint). T-Mo and AT&T are GSM (and thus have SIM cards). I get what you meant though.
It’s good to hear that Latham/Colonie has great service…I spend a lot of time in that area (both my brothers live in that area).
