So those of you that do not know, PC-world went to like 50 cities across the US to do a test on the 3 major carriers on network speed, call clairty, and dropability.

Sprint placed 98% reliable
AT&T placed 72%
Verizon placed 65%
You tell me look it up btw

You mean this one?

If you're going to bash, at least quote your numbers right.

Sprint 90.5%
Verizon 89.8%
AT&T 68%

The difference between Sprint and Verizon is so minor that variance in conditions can swing the two in either direction.

Now, as for speed...

Verizon averages 951 kbps download
AT&T 812 kbps
Sprint 808 kbps

Here Verizon's actually the fastest in this test, with sprint and AT&T fighting for runner up.

To be honest, these tests are very subjective, because coverage, distance to tower, etc. makes the difference, and what works for some people doesn't work for others.
