Thanks for the advice. I think I'll possible get a signal repeater. I called ATT and Microcell does not seem ready to be released - at least the customer service rep did not lead on that it would be coming out soon. I'd hate to drop $300 just to get service, but Ill do what I ahve to do.
How does the repeater work? I get service outside - in fact, if I open my balcony door slightly (about a foot, I get decent service. But apparently the door is super thick or something and when it is shut all the way - BAM! No service - it says "seaching...". So a signal repeater has an antenna and something that goes inside? Will I have the same problem with the repeater not being able to penetrate the door?
Oh, and I did check service when I was looking at the condo and it appeared to work - but, the sliding balcony door must have been open! That, though, is not enough of a reason to not buy a place. Worst comes to worst, I head back to sprint (my wife's phone works pretty good)...
