Re: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] Treo 600's in Columbia

[Mike Miller <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

I don't live in Columbia and I haven't visited since I got my Treo 600,
but I will say that I love it.  It's a great device.  It is *much* better
than the the Treo 300 or Treo 270 (both of which I owned - the Treo 270
had to be replaced *four* times!).

I'm using Sprint (be sure to specify your carrier when requesting info on
coverage) and I'm getting good coverage where I've been except when
traveling west through the Dakotas and Montana (but I don't think anyone
will give you good service in those parts).  Check out your local coverage
map for Sprint:

I think their maps generally are accurate and may even understate
coverage.  My guess is that you'll be pretty happy with it, but it will be
better to get more info from other Sprint users in town.
