I use Alltel (it used to be Cellular One), and I have had it flake on me
occasionally. In California, the phone was on analog all the time instead
of digital, which really ate up the batteries, and I seemed to have
problems receiving calls even when the phone was on. They would instead go
to my voicemail. However, more disturbingly, last night I was in Sedona to
meet some friends, and my friend, who was calling from a Sprint PCS cell
phone, couldn't call me successfully. The connection kept getting lost
after 2 seconds or so. When I tried calling her, her phone rang abortively
but didn't connect when she answered. Fortunately I knew we were both in
Tlaquepaque so I just yelled loudly and found her. Anybody have any idea
why the phones would have problems connecting like this? I am not familiar
with other carriers, and would love to know if this is just a problem with
Alltel, or comes with the cellular territory.
