Well, depending on how the end of CDMA affects coverage in some of the more remote areas, Verizon might not have any benefits over some of the others. Until now their excellent coverage in places in the US desert SW and other remote corners of the "known" world has cemented my relationship with them. Now, whether I dump them depending on their whitelisting of the KeyTwo, I cannot answer right now. It will be more of a coverage consideration when the time comes.

For those thinking of switching... https://opensignal.com/ has some pretty good data on signal strength in some areas. Can also drop out 3G to see how that might affect things - when that happens. Best thing is just to ask friends, family, or coworkers what they use and they experinece.If going to T-Mobile you'd want to see if your area uses band 71 (on their site) much, as the KEYtwo doesn't. Probable not a big deal....For me AT&T (would love to combine my Directv service) is the only carrier that comes close to Verizon's coverage... but not close enough. They didn't fully support advance calling features on the KEYone... so doubtful they'll work on the KEYtwo either.Anyway you look it would mean another compromise of some sort.
