Howdy Matt it will be a pleasure to meet you and share a little home brew with ya

Sprint has worked near flawlessly for me over the past 2-3 years.

I think internet as well, although probably not EVDO.

Town Park had a hot spot that worked well, when it worked.   

[Maineahhh]

[TellurideTom]

Yup! There's all kinds of wireless hot spots around town where you can connect for free.

Cingular works fine there.

I thought I'd update this post...

My Cingular phone had no coverage when I was in Telluride Saturday!
I think I'm gonna try switching to Verizon.

Update: I later found it to be the pay-as-you-go phone. Normal accounts are not affected.

Wow... I was just about to switch to Cingular for the iPhone on the 9th.  I guess I'll wait until after... or maybe not at all.  Dang... I want that iPhone. 

It kills two birds with one stone... given that my iPod went "swoosh!" down an airplane toilet.

Well dahlin... it was like this:

I am afraid of flying (plane take-off failure out of O'Hare... one of the American Airline flights with de-icing issues back in 95)... which makes the fact that I do it almost weekly hard on a little monkey like me.  I make sure that I fly off hours so that I can calm myself with a few cocktails and music.  I was listening to my music, and drinking those cocktails on my way to Minneapolis and had to use the "facilities."  Because I engage the time-honored practice of "hovering" in public restrooms, anything in my back pocket, if the pocket is not substantial, is in a somewhat precarious situation.  Being claustrophobic (left over from near-death drowning accident at age 8), I move efficiently in and out of said facilities... small room and all.  So hitting "flush", re-adjusting clothing, and standing are all "one move."  When the music suddenly stopped, I turned around in time to see my iPod in the toilet and had a split second to decide if I was going to retrieve my iPod.

I decided to wave good-bye.

I dropped my last phone in a toilet too... but that's a different story.

My kind of woman...pays last respects to her iPod, even if it is a quick wave goodbye 

I'll leave the phone story to the imagination

hmmmm that's very odd my ATT/Cingular Pone worked fine in Town Park last year...

 

 Listening to: silence

I also have Cingular/AT&T and it worked all through ski season this year.  I did not check my phone when with Tom on Saturday but I'm hoping it was just a hiccup.
