I had NExtel a little over 2 years ago. It never had service. Nothing but junk, switched over to Verizon best decision I could have made when it comes to cell phone providers!

well AC just got 3 new nextel towers LOL and I need it for my job, makes it easier to call in an illegal park when were in garden court or gramercy park, or when I run on lots like McDonalds or states ave and the garden peir lot where I have to move fast. depending on the way a car is parked I can take a car in anywhere from 30sec to 2min so the phone has to be fast too...we use the group talk sometimes and use 10 code and talk all redneck and snatch cars LOL I even got the pueto rican guy talkin all redneck...thats fun too LOL

Yeah, they've had it for years now but now they're finally starting to push it. They come out with it as soon as Nextel lost their patent a few years ago.
