Yes I do. There are many putzes here that are brain-washed by the Verizon
Marketing Machine that are almost in a hypnotic trance regarding the
"Verizon, It's the Network" crap. They are drinking the koolaid by the
gallons. If they were to do some reserach. they would find that Sprint can
be forced into roaming mode and therefore can roam on Verizon, in the very
unlikely circumstance that you have a Verizon signal but not a sprint
signal. If the folks on the Verizon newsgroup would stop drinking the
kool-aid that Verizon is serving them, they would see the truth!
I do have to admit that Verizon as a marketing department that is actually
quite amazing, but in reality, that is all that they have. Take it from me
because I had been with Verizon for 10 years and had been brain-washed by
them. I went around like you guy do bashing Sprint at every opportunity and
then I moved to an area where there is no Verizon service and was forced to
switch to Sprint. It has been three years and I have never looked-back! I
travel nationally quite frequently and the folks that I travel with are
always borrowing my Sprint phone because they don't have usable signal on
their Verizon phones. Listen up all of you Verizon Shills and put down your
glass of Verizon Kool-aid because I speak the truth and you will learn by
listening to me! If you have any questions, then fire-away and I will give
you the truth from an unbiased point-of-view. Remember that I was with
Verizon for 10 years and was trained to be a "Sprint Basher" just like most
of the shills in this newsgroup.
P.S. Next time you don't get a signal on Verizon and have to borrow a Sprint
phone, don't forget to say to yourself "It's the Network!" :-) Doh!
