I had trouble with my Droid. People couldn't hear me on calls and I was having a hard time keeping a signal. Sometimes I'd lose my Internet connection and I thought it was Verizon's network.
I tried wireless Internet with Alltel a couple of years ago before getting DSL for my PC. At the time, I had good cell phone reception. The Net connection was terribly slow and I assumed I was in a bad coverage area for WiFi.
Verizon bought Alltel, as you probably know. My old phone stopped holding a charge and I was told that I couldn't keep my Alltel plan if I got a new phone. The problem is that Verizon's charging $30 more for the same amount of minutes plus $30 for the unlimited data plan. I couldn't justify paying that much for service I wasn't getting so I had to take the Droid back. My two year contract was terminated because I hadn't had the phone for 30 days. I was on a month to month plan before getting the Droid. It's the only Verizon phone I like.
I've switched to AT&T. Their coverage is even worse! I really like my iPhone but I'm missing the Droid. Perhaps my Droid was defective. I'm still on the 30 day trial with the iPhone.
Should I switch back to Verizon? Several people have posted that the Droid is the best phone they've ever had and it's getting good reviews. I don't really need all the minutes I had on the Alltel plan so I could save the extra $30 and have my minutes cut in half.
Also, Vcast with Rhapsody is $14.99 per month. I didn't have to pay for that subscription the first time around. ???
Thanks in advance.
