This is dumb... Cell South sucks in MS as it is for the most part, and Corr is a GSM network...

Not so much. In door service is horrible at best. I go to MS every other week. Verizon use to roam off of Cell South. Some areas are good, but over all its poor. Its because they use PCS only.

I have a great amount of experience in Mississippi with friends and family in Jackson, Gulfport, Columbus, Meridian, Biloxi, Gautier, Noxapater...

South MS, but North MS is horrible. In door service is horrible. Verizon use to use CS first then switch to Alltel if CS wasn't present. Anytime I would go in doors my phone would switch to Alltel. I will say CS is better then AT&T is most places in MS. But Sprint comes in last.
