With some carriers with weak or no presence in the area, while you are able to pick up a signal off another carrier’s tower with the occasional (visitor) use, once the level of calls ‘off network’ exceeds a certain percentage of total use, you run into trouble. Currently Cingular/ATT has limited service in the area and, at least in our case, (a) threatened to drop the service and (b) put a restriction on which towers the phone could pull a signal from thus severely limiting the locations in and around town in which the phone has service.

Verizon seems to have great service in the area - and also seems less inclined, by policy, to penalize a user for pulling signals from other carrier towers.
