Reduced NC coverage?

[pappy53]

I have read about some reduced coverage in different areas of the country. I live in eastern North Carolina, and was wondering if anyone else in eastern NC was losing coverage from where it was a short time ago? I cannot travel from Goldsboro, NC to Raleigh, NC (about 50 miles) on an interstate highway without losing signal in 4 places. I used to have coverage the whole trip. Also, I did have 3G in my house, but it is now gone. Anyone else?

Coverage map has reduced dramatically.

Just got off the phone with Sprint, and naturally they denied any loss of coverage. I told them that even in my house, I don't have 3G anymore, whereas 3 weeks ago I did. They offered me something called an Airwave for $129.99 and a new 2 year contract! I told them that I was not paying to get my service back to it's original status.This should be a way to get out of contract,but I'm sure that they are covered somewhere in their contract.

Well they have admitted to some coverage loss. This was on their website:

Sprint has agreed to send me an Airave at no charge. They said that I needed an internet connection in my home, which I have. What is the difference between using the Airave, and running my phone over my home wireless network? Which way is better?

it allows you to use the cell phone to make calls through the Internet connection.
