Default NexTel Coverage

I'm about to switch to NexTel for the walkie-talkie features, you guys have any problems with your service?

LOL
nextel coverage isnt bad but the problem is their phones hold on to the littlest signal until the other person thinks you are underwater and speaking chinese to them... basically the coverage is weak in a lot of areas.

the PTT feature is awesome tho and if you use the phone right it cant be pretty cheap for a lot of services.

The coverage is pretty good but you do get pockets around our area (im guessing all over the us)where we dont get any service and you get a "user unavailable" message.

I got one just last week, the i730, to talk with lots of friends who use it, I still have my Nokia as a main phone and basically I always end calling them with it, they got free incoming and I am not a cheapskate....
