I know this might be an explosive topic on an Android forum but hopefully some of you can help me decide whether I should stick with my Incredible.
First, my house gets little to no coverage from any carrier. For the past two years I've been using a Blackberry Curve on TMobile using UMA over my Wifi router. This has served me well at home but unfortunately TMobile coverage in my area is spotty and the Blackberry just can't compare to the iPhone or Inc for useability.
So I bought an Incredible thinking it would work at my house since my sister gets decent coverage with her Verizon BB Curve. Not the case. I've had to buy a Verizon Network Extender to get a decent signal at the house. This has bumped my signal from -105dbm to mid -90s.
So here is my dilemma, do I keep the Inc and Verizon Extender or do I wait for the iPhone 4G and the 3GMicroCell from AT&T. I like the Inc but the call quality with the Extender still is limited and not the best. It looks like the AT&T Microcell is more like UMA which goes out over the broadband connection and then out to the wireless network. Does Verizon's do this or is it just boosting my signal? Will I get a better connection with the Microcell?
I'd like some honest opinions of benefits of an iPhone vs an Inc and vice versa. I have no experience with the iPhone so I really don't know what I'd be gaining or giving up by switching from my Inc.
Thanks in Advance.
