I have checked on what I have on the contract now.
400 shared minutes, free nights and weekends, and no roaming, for $59.99. I spoke to verizon and the contract can be upgraded if you would like without extending it past 07Jan The two phones that I have are LG VX3200 and Motorola V265. Have chargers and cases for both phones as well.

Thats cause your down in the bonddocks of Aquasco Speedy, I have Nextel no real problems, but there is really bad reception along 381 from about Baden Firehouse to county line, I have seen new towers go up along that area but must not be Nextels. Another bad spot LaPlata Rd, between Rt. 5 and Radio Station Road.

I haven't lived in Aquasco for over a year.

I have Cingular and get great reception when I'm in Aquasco. It all depends on the phone.

Within St. Marys.... where all does Nextel do well, and where all does it start to fail..someone told me once you pass gate 2 or gate 3, its down the tubes...

But, anyone who has one have any input on them....

And I mostle stay within the county limits..

But you spend over a third of your day in Aquasco.

Question for all those in Calvert county who drive back and forth between Chesapeake Beach and Prince frederick. I've tried several different companies and Verizon is the only one that doesn't drop my calls or have dead spots between Huntingtown and the Beach. The only dead spot with verizon is when i'm approaching the Base at Randles Cliff.
