     writes:

    We are considering Sprint Celluar and would like to consult the list for
    their experience with this carrier, in this area.
    I have Sprint and have used it primarily for Internet G3 connection via my
    laptop. We have not tried it in the Carolinas or Georgia as we only went
    offshore past these states since I got the phone, but it did work well in north
    Florida, and between Norfolk and southern Maine.

    We also have Verizon and it has worked well everywhere south of central
    coastal Maine.

    The exceptions to both systems have been the Penobscot Bay area in Maine
    where both systems are not present and the local systems were very "iffy". They
    worked, in Analog mode, off and on. We played a lot of voice mail tag.
