Coverage in Portland OR

Now that changing carriers is all the rage, and given that ATT is being taken over by Cingular, does anyone have an opinion on coverage in Oregon? I am tempted to change to T-Mobile. Suze

Cingular doesn't have any towers in Portland but they do roam off att's Gsm towers ( virtualy useless) and T-mobiles which is pretty well covered. but we'd love to have you switch over to T-mo!

my husband just made the change, and he's testing all the blank spots that att have. If he gets coverage where I currently don't them I'm switching immediately to T-Mo.

You know, its funny.. I get customers from portland and area ALL the time, they sure don't think its useless. I work for AWS. You people need to do some research before saying crap about other companies.

T-Mobile will be FORCED back to the bidding table once AWS is bought by Cingular, because it'll be in a terrible position.. right now it uses Cingular to expand its own coverage in many areas, and suddenly won't have much coverage in the west, because Cingular won't need to have T-Mobiles areas, since AWS has a full TRUE nationwide network, not a network relying on other providers. 😛

t-mobile has not made a profit yet since coming to america. they spent all their money on Catherine Zeta Jones and cant afford anything else. most likely they will be gone within a year or two.

Cingular would be foolish to not buy ATTW and most likely will, thus making them the #1 mobile carrier in subscribers and network coverage. Once you see the already expanded coverage maps on Feb. 2nd, you will know where Cingular has spent their money - on their network, not on an actress.

and form wht i heard, the plans will be phenomenal, not only in value, but in lack of roaming charges, national mobile to mobile, and other goodies...
