I had Nextel for 5 years & even got the stupid Hybrid ic502 ... BIG MISTAKE ! ! ! but due to the Sprint/Nextel Mobile to Mobile calling it made Sprint a better, more reliable service than Metro.... I drive daily from Ft Lauderdale to Stuart & places where I would have lost a call with Nextel I don't with Sprint .... I like the Sprint Cell service & the prices are actually pretty decent ....

I'm curious about the metro phones,,,,I'm thinking of getting one and dumping Nextel, but I wonder how the coverage is in FL,,,,,what's your experience?

Id@

They make a GREAT second phone. Smiley It really depends where you are. Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach, are 100% covered. Naples and Ft Myers pretty good as well. Orlando and Lakeland are 90%. North of there, it is a crap shoot until you reach Atlanta, where it works great again. This is all the non roaming areas I know of.

I treat it like my land line that can reach really far from the house.




Palm Beach & Broward are NOT 100 % covered .... Areas in Palm Beach on SR 80 ( Southern Blvd ) out towards Loxahatchee & Royal Palm as well as alot of Belle Glade plus alot of dead spots in Palm Beach.... Broward if you don't mind dropping a call after about 2 minutes then I guess they are ok but everyone I know that has Metro in Broward hates it ....

Like someone said, blonds vs brunettes. Smiley

I believe a lot has to do with the phone and the load on the system at the time.  My Metro works everywhere in Broward, including across the alley. The only issue that pisses me off, is the sporadic coverage out in the holey lands. I sometimes need to switch to roam.
I cover all the areas I mentioned for work, and it has yet to fail me.
The only time I have dropped calls is in 5:00 traffic around Miami when everyone in the land is talking about nothing on their metros.

Now you know one person in Broward who likes Metro. It is funny, all the owners of them call em MetroPOS, yet they still have them attached to their head.

The best part is for $50, you can get the phone and a month to try it out and throw it in the garbage can if you don't like it. Smiley
