Over by here, friends with Sprint have calls dropped about 30 times per day 
(no, they don't have a landline). Sprint has been using the "we're upgrading 
our towers any day now" line for about a year. Guys at the Schaumburg & 
Rolling Meadows offices also got dropped calls on Golf Rd all the time.

That's not exactly helpful for Cyd's neighborhood, but if'n he heads out to 
the NW burbs, expect shitty service.
