Recommended Carrier in the USA?

[DrSnarky]

I am planning on buying the N95 (or maybe the N96 if I can wait that long) in the near future.
Currently I have ATT Wireless service, but I am off contract now. So, if I buy an N95, this would be the time for me to start a new contract with a different carrier.

Are there any carrier recommendations from current N95 users in the USA?

Thanks!

What options do you have other than T-mobile and AT&T? To me at&t is the only way to go

at&t is the only one who has 3g now. t-mobile has a total internet for $20 but it's slow.

AT&T is my favorite- fast 3G, good coverage.

AT&T for the 3G service

We have AT&T, Verizon, Sprint/Nextel, T-Mobile in our area. I have been using ATT for my personal phone for several years (AT&T>Cingular>AT&T). I have also used Nextel for a long time for my work cell phone.

So far it sounds like AT&T is the way to go, which would make my life easier from a billing/contract perspective.

AT&T and T-Mobile are GSM networks, and will work with the N95. Verizon and Sprint are CDMA networks and will not work with the N95. Nextel is based on iDen and will not work with the N95.

Thanks for the great info! This will make getting a new phone a lot easier.

Make sure you have the pda plan. I went to Texas where I used the phone as a modem the whole time, no extra charges.

I don't have 3g here, but having it there was

theres a few places that sell n95s with a discount if you sign a contract. none in michigan tho. i know a place in houston thats pretty reputable.

I think I am going to hold out for the N96. I have waited this long, so what's another 6 months? It would be nice if Nokia came out with a definitive US release date soon.
