<p>hi all,
i'll be at princeton next fall and was planning on getting a cell phone. what carrier do most students use and what's generally the best carrier as far as signal strength and consistency goes?</p>
<p>does the school have deals with any carriers?</p>
<p>thanks,
ptown</p>
<p>Cingular isn't that bad. That's what I use.</p>
<p>And no, there are no deals.</p>
<p>How's T-Mobile?</p>
<p>best are t-mobile, cingular, and verizon.</p>
<p>sprint is the worst</p>
<p>sprint has bad service anywhere</p>
<p>pcs stands for pretty crappy service</p>
<p>hahahahhaa yea i use to have sprint and i couldnt get service in my house....sad :(</p>
<p>no, t-mobile is really bad in New Jersey (and really bad in NY, if not everywhere....)
Verizon seems to work everywhere, but the Cingular/AT&T merger means they have the biggest network right now, so any of the two will be good. My dad, who worked in New Jersey for a while, used AT&T and it worked great. They also tend to be cheaper and have more choices for cell phones than Verizon.</p>
