Coverage in western WA
Does anyone here use Cingular in western Washington, especially in the Seattle area? Any comments on coverage?
I'm with Verizon right now, as they have the best coverage from what I've seen. But I call Canada a lot, and $.20 per minute for LD to Canada is crazy. But I hike and go to the boonies a lot, so coverage is critical.
Thanks

I had a similar question, but for a few different areas. I found out by going to a Cingular retail store that Cingular reps can provide EXTREMELY detailed coverage maps of an area if you give them a zip code or a street address nearby. Note that their external web site does not provide the same level of details, so you have to go to a Cingular store. Might be worth a try.
In my case I couldn't believe my eyes, so I took a loaner phone from a friend who uses Cingular and took it for a day trip to the area, and the detailed coverage map appeared to be very accurate.

I like the idea of flat rate calling to Canada, but 6.9 cents/minute isn't too bad. I'll give primus a try. I've tried other LD 1-800 numbers, but the quality was always horrible. I assumed that they just don't work with cell phones...
Thanks.
