ALLTEL Mississippi
I have been with several phone companies over the years, and have some advise for any customer in the state.
For those customers that live in major cities like the Jackson metro area. You best bets for good service.
Alltel would be my first choice. the coverage is great, 3G speeds are awesome. phones are cool even given the lock down on bt ringtones.
Verizon is a good choice, though the service only works well in the cities. awesome phones though. 3G is awesome here too.
Sprint works well here too. though don't lokk for customer service around Jackson, you will be ready to punch the sales rep.
Cellular South works good if you can deal with phones that suck and the terms of the plans. read your plan details before you decide...

That's because of the big EVDO agreement Alltel signed with Sprint, and it makes Sprint the primary roamer outside of the Alltel network. But remember that Sprint doesn't work everywhere. No one works everywhere. And that even means Alltel and Verizon.
