Not really having any reception issues in North Jersey with the cell. Heard from two people on Iphones (4S) that are having issues on Long Island (AT&T and Verizon) but I think they lost some cell towers over there.

no power though. Really getting a feel for how long the battery lasts. with 'regular' usage I seem to be able to get from 5pm quitting time at work until I get in the next morning. Which is good since it's also the alarm clock.

I had to do that as well sucked! Thank god for car chargers. I tried to tell you guys buy a car charger, and stock up on gas. I've been through too many storms to know. I hope you gnus stay safe.

I'm poor can't spend 500 on a generator and spend 400 in gas to keep it running. so I just sit there with candles, and 4 packs of d cell batteries. A propane lantern, until I get my electricity back. Recover will be slow and painful. Especially to people not used to this type of stuff. Just like if a freak blizzard burried my state Louisiana under 3 feet of snow. We would be looking our pants stay safe, and listen to athourities!!! If they say its not safe don't tempt it
