Here is one of my favorite parts :

"Late last year, VoiceStream Wireless added free long distance to some of its national plans. Last month, Cingular Wireless, a joint venture between SBC Communications Inc. and BellSouth Corp., added a bunch of minutes to its national plans. The $29.99 plan now includes an extra 150 anytime minutes. Those who spend $199.99 get an extra 1,000 anytime minutes."

Boy, I bet VoiceStream and Cingular sure dread Leap Wireless "coming to town" !

Jon.

Well, looks like Good News as far as Devon goes.

Devon posted buildout data for Pittsburgh, PA.

Another Protection Build.

geocities.com

They claim 635K covered out of 2.507 million (25.33%)

So Buffalo and Pittsburgh are Protection Builds at this stage.

Here is a composite of a comparison between Devon and Cricket in Buffalo.
