I'm still with Sprint, no plans to change. Yes, they've gotten better but I don't think because of what you said; I think because they merged with Nextel, so their coverage got better. But I still don't get a good signal in my basement or at work, and I know thet Verizon phones have no problem in those areas. What really sucks is that you can walkie-talkie between each individual carrier, but they still haven't found a way to do it between Nextel and Sprint customers; the hardware is apparently incompatible. And when I'm in upstate NY, I'm still roaming, even when on Nextel's network.
