Compared to what's out there, it's fine. The coverage is good, but be sure when you sign up with Cingular, or upgrade your service, to ask all the questions. I agreed to upgrade my service, which included a new "free" phone, but they did not tell me that I would pay for the $9 shipping or that the bonus minutes were only for a promotional period. Also, text messaging and Internet connection are extra costs. Just keep asking them, are there any other charges? Get the person's name etc. Watch out for hidden costs! Ask questions: is this only for a promotional period? Will I pay for shipping the phone? Do I have to agree to a 2 year contract? Does it cost extra to text message?
