One More Suggestion (Coverage Maps)

I was wondering if it was possible to put the carriers separate coverage maps on this site as well. Possibly interactive as well. The location i currently work at is limited to Verizonwireless.com and Phonescoop.com. So it would be valuable to me to be able to see each separate carriers map. Links to the carriers website are great but in my situation im unable to view them.
Thanks for the quick responses,
Paul

I've thought a lot about ways to expand the "carriers" section of the site, and something like that would be a natural fit for that.

However, I've made a strategic decision to stay focused more on the phones than the service, at least for now.

Plus, coverage maps would be very tricky. There are a lot of legal issues - more than you would think. Carriers are very protective of that kind of information.

I would like to see charts from all the carriers relating to their churn rate, who's porting where their going and what they had before, independent reviews of customer service, coverage, quality, etc. I think that would be a valuable tool for all of us.

I think all suggestions should include donations to phonescoop.com 😉

That's getting into industry analysis and investor information. Phone Scoop's focus is on the phones, not the carriers, so that's pretty far outside the focus of this site.

Certainly it's important information, but other publications cover that sort of thing. For the hard-core industry stats, analysis, and financial stuff, I recommend RCR:
