New Orleans / Baton Rouge coverage

[AndroidsOfTara]

Are there any TM users in the New Orleans area who can tell me how the voice / 3G coverage is around the area?

How about between NOLA & Baton Rouge?

I'm thinking of switching from Verizon to TM. I currently have the Moto Droid, but am extremely interested in the Nexus One.... and less expensive service.

Thanks.

Hi there! I happen to be a student at LSU and go back to New Orleans often to visit my family. I have the Nexus One right now and I get practically full bars everywhere in Baton Rouge, New Orleans, Metairie, and Kenner. Only complaint I have is I can't get 3G or even EDGE when I'm on I-10 traveling between the cities, however I do still get full GPRS signal on I-10 so phone calls and such can still be made/received.

Also go to the website and check out the coverage maps, type in the area and it shows whether its 3G, EDGE, or GPRS.

I did, but I was curious about what people experience rather than with TMO's coverage maps say.

Oh ok. You could also try GSM World's (gsmworld.com) maps, I would say they are pretty unbiased.
