Same Network - Different Carrier
These are separate, "alternative"
companies that use the same wireless network,
also known as Mobile Virtual Network Operators
(MVNO), wholesale networks, or cellular "re-sellers",
of the major carriers. You get your phone
and customer service from these companies
instead of the underlying carrier. Some companies
use more than one network and the type of
wireless device determines whether a CDMA,
GSM or WIMAX carrier is used. All features
may not be available. This is where to look
if you hate your carrier but love their network.
