I am in NJ and spend a lot of time in NYC. I used VZW for about 8 years, during that time I thought VZW was the only provider that had acceptable service in the area. I just switched to AT&T for a number of reasons. I love the form factor of curve and the AT&T coverage in the area is fine. Four or five years ago, I don't think I would have been happy with Cingular in this area, but they have improved.

A big issue for me is that I didn't like that VZW cripples their phones. Even though I didn't need the GPS, if VZW had included it, I would have chosen to stick w/ them and would have been happy to take the larger 8830 w/ the extra GPS capability.

As it is, I am very happy w/ the curve and AT&T.
