I'm leaving for basic in little over a month and am trying to plan ahead. I currently have sprint through my employer, reservist so keeping the employer benefits. From the coverage map, it looks like sprint gets bad data coverage around there, anyone with experience?

I was thinking about getting a Verizon hotspot to skype with the wife and kid. Anyone used Verizon around there or have better suggestion?

Thanks!

DO NOT GET SPRINT. I don't know about other states but Florida is the WORST for Sprint. It absolutely sucks. Verizon is the best in Florida. It's amazing. I get service everywhere; and I mean everywhere.
