I have used Sprint PCS for about 5 years now. Their data service only gets better. The EVDO service is great and speed is a non issue.

It also depends on your area, because some services work better in different places.

I see Verizon is giving a 30 day try out. That might be worth trying.

On the phone side, I would suggest a smart phone/PDA phone. I like the Treo series and not sure I will change unless someone makes a better phone. I currently use the Treo700 and before that had the Treo600. You cant go wrong with a Treo.

I have Cingular but hate waiting for pages to load. I use a toll free number for updates (1-800-555-TELL) It's voice automated and the score updates are pretty fast.
