For South Carolina
#1 - ALLTEL
#2 - Verizon
If you plan to only use on Interstates Cingular, Sprint and Bellsouth may be okay. I need much more than that. I have only had experience with both Alltel and Verizon but other coverage maps admit the lack of coverage in rural SC. Also with Verizon's reluctance to change (time for nights to begin) or be agressive with their pricing Alltel is my only consideration. Their "Nights start ...

Alltel pricing is ...
Re: Stupid
I have used Nokia, Audiovox, Kyocera, Lucky Goldstar and Motorola and found that they all can and do make good phones. They are designed by people and cannot be expected to be perfect or be "everything" to everyone.
