[missing-sync-palmos-talk] [OT] Coverage

[Paul Berkowitz]

Several of you have said here you're waiting on the Treo 650 until Verizon
carries it because Verizon's coverage is better. You mean nationally, or in
your neck of the woods? And how do you come by that knowledge? - all the
website maps are pretty small-scale.

Cingular seems excellent in California, where I live and drive. And of
course they cover all major cities and population centers, where I'll fly. I
don't particularly care about the back roads of distant states.

I did note that someone said that Verizon has a CDMA (?) network, not GSM.
The Cingular salesman on the phone did say that CDMA was better and was what
they have "in Europe". Not surprisingly he did not mention that the
competition here also has it. What's the scale of the difference?
