WIRELESS? price does not matter for me.

T-Mobile pretty much owns NYC....rock solid coverage everywhere. AT&T phones can roam for free on T-Mobile in that city as well (mine does constantly), and Verizon does decently well too.

Don't waste your time with Nextel or Sprint though....both companies are utter crap.

Verizon is good in NYC. Upstate, I've run into some dead spots.

Verizon has great coverage in about 90% of New York. Check www.vzw.com for a map of coverage. Stay away from Sprint since their merge with Nextel the service has gone down hill and they are actually firing customers who call customer service too much (over 1000 customers this month).
