I've had my Nextel for about three years now. Before that I used Verizon. But I loved the walkie/talkie feature and can use it to talk from the lake back to central MA. I even called from LA/CA last June all the way to southern NH with never a problem. I've really not had a phone service problem with the Nextel except maybe some friday nights when everyone is arriving or making plans and the towers will be too busy for a signal.
