If I Switch to T-Mo Will I Really Notice Any Difference ...?

I need to upgrade. I've been with AT&T for quite awhile and reasonably satisfied. BUT -
I use the FM radio functionality in my 6230 quite a bit - the Nokia 6126 doesn't have FM - I had an N75 and it didn't work real well - I want to stay with Nokia - and T-Mo has the Nokia 6133(which has FM)

In addition, T-Mo's plan of 1000 min / $39.95 fits me pretty well.

I'm not just "trolling" here ... I'm trying to find a phone I want. If I were to switch from AT&T what differences would I really see? (And I do travel coast-to-coast on occasion).

The coverage is not the same.

You will notice:

No upgrade fees down the road
No fee to pay your bill to a rep in store (Cing does in this area)
Accessories are generally a few dollars cheaper
Less strick upgrade policies
Reconnect fees are cheaper

on the other side of the coin

Nothing out there will ever be as good as rollover IMOP
T-Mobile doesnt stock batteries in store (here anyway)
Coverage isn't as widespread

Thanks for the input.

Coverage would be my primary concern. My sense is I could anticipate more and broader dead spots with T-Mo than AT&T. But if that's true I don't know whether on a scale of 1 - 10 whether the reception impact is a 1 or a 10! Coverage map-wise I see a few specific differences but not to any great magnitude.

Give them a try. They let you test their network for 14 days, or 30 days in California. You can use this map to see how coverage is in ur area(s):
