I live in a rural area and now that the bag cellphone is a thing of the past it seems like I have trouble getting a decent signal on my cell phone. Anyone out there have any suggestions for cell phones that seem to be more powerful signal-wise?

I want santa (me) to bring me a satilite phone. I have print and it works almost anywhere---but not in south dakota.

I didn't think of satelite phones, but I meant normal run of the mill cell phones- are there any of those that seem to be more powerful?

We have Motorola 810 and 815's that we use with Verizon. We seem to get pretty good coverage. I get more/better signal with my 815 that hubby does with his 810, so maybe they are just improving the phones that much better. We live in a rural area, too. Hubby actually regrets having total digital phone, because now a dropped call is gone. With his analog/digital phone he could at least continue the conversation when the caller went through a hilly terrain or the signal gets weak for a couple seconds.

Does having different cell phone providers make a different. Meaning, are there areas where certain cell phones won't work because of the lack of satellites in that area?

What's a bag phone?

You know - the big black bag with the corded phone and the foot long antenna on the side of the bag?!?!
