Specific 6100 vs. 7000 RF Questions, quick replies needed from those who've had both

I've got a 6100 that works fairly well but I have to use force mode to get a usable (800mHz, extended USCC network) signal inside at both my workplace and at home. Yes, I live in a 1900 PCS area.

I'm thinking of switching to a 7000 and have a couple days yet to do it.

My questions:
For those who have had both. WILL the 7000 pick up and hold a USABLE digital signal in marginal areas (indoors, basement, etc.) where the 6100 either switched on its own or (more likely) needed to be manually forced to a different mode? Are the Rx Power numbers different enough between the two?

Many thanks to those who reply.

Yeah,
I have had both and I kept the 6100. I had reception problems with the 7000 in my office and it did sound any better than my old v60. Didn't sound digital at all.
I even took the 6100 to the D.R. and it worked good. Nice and clear talking and sound. And I haven't even had the s/w update yet.

If any one else knows why this is true, let me know. I am kinda sorry about it b/c I really liked the look of the 7000 and I didn't thing the likes on it was gay at all. They have actually woke me up at times.

my 2 cents

How am I supposed to do that? Anyway, the 7000 doesn't have analog, and I know everyone is going digital but what about the mean time? I was in Chicago, am the 7000 didn't sound good at all, do you think it was the phone?

It would be cool if verizon would throw in the 7000a in to the line up. It has analog.

I still am confussed about the whole analog and digital thing, maybe I have has bad phones. I JUST WANT A PHONE THAT WORKS,
ist that so wrong?
