lol. That's quite a grouping; good thing we're all net-vets <g>.

It sounds like you live in the north Bay. We have a very similar situation in the south Bay, the heart of Silicon Gulch. I use the Sprint/QCP2700 as well, and love it. My wife is on the 500 minute plan, and my employer is paying for my 1,000 minutes. At my home in south San Jose (Almaden Valley), I get ZERO bars, and still hook up very nicely. But driving around parts of Santa Clara, Sunnyvale, and San Jose with 4 bars (not the tequilla kind), I occasionally get dropped calls with the dreaded "signal faded" error message. No problem, though; it's remarkably reliable for what it is, and I'm sure it will only get better.

btw, we don't have cable modem or asdl down here yet; can you believe it?
