Summary: Incredibly satisfied
Review: I recently joined the local volunteer fire company and wanted to get the nextel for direct connect and its reputable service to contact the guys at the station. Needless to say at my house its the only phone that gets full reception. I have friends who have sprint cingular verizon at& ( I have the T720 on the next generation as my primary cell phone) and none of them get good reception like i do with my nextel. The direct connect is awesome and even though verizon has their version of direct connect it takes 2-4 seconds for it go through. Not to mention the fact that most people who want 2 way have nextel and not verizon. Now the number portability act is soon upon us you will have more freedom to choose and believe me I chose right. I'm not saying that verizon is a bad company or any of the other ones are either since i have at&t service and get reception almost anywhere. Once again it also comes down to where you live and what the coverage is. In my tri state area most providers have good coverage but nextel was the way to go to serve my fire service needs.

Summary: Excellent phone
Review: I just got this phone a couple of days ago. It is the first time I have delt with nextel and so far nothing but happiness of perfect signal everywhere. Before I had at&t. They are ok but the walkie talkie feature is unbeatable. You get connected to the person you need instantly. I have not lost a call yet. Everything is crystal clear, including in my house where for some reason I have never been able to get signal, except until I got the i90. Great phone for a great price. You can't go wrong with this one.

Summary: Great great phone, even better service
Review: This is a great phone. I upgraded to this from a Nokia 3360 on the AT&T network. Needless to say i will never leave Nextel. Their Direct Connect feature is amazing, crystal clear, even when using nationwide direct connect (From New York to Nevada)! Love Java apps and polyphonic ring tones. Only one complaint about the phone is that the screen is a tiny bit small but, hey, it still deserves all 5-stars! Nextel has great customer service and very good mobile web. Their customer rep call back feature works like a charm, i received a call within two minutes from submitting the request. Whether you get this product off Amazon.com or somewhere else, you cannot go wrong with this phone. It's one rock-solid product

Summary: Great phone and service.
Review: I have owned this phone since September of 2002. There are very few places where I lose service. Even in malls, elevators, office buildings, it works great. The phone is great also, the battery lasts a few days at most, but I charge every night, so it doesn't really matter. One of the other reviewers said that you can't use the direct connect feature while in another city, you can. I live in PA, and was in Maryland and the direct connect worked fine if I was DCing to other people in the area. You can't DC people from home there though. That should be changing when Nextel goes national. Overall it's a great service, and a great phone!

Summary: Very poor customer service
Review: I ordered a Nextel National Value 300 plan (with free long distance) on Sept. 27 with this cell phone. It arrived days later on Oct. 2nd. Ironically, when I activated it the same day I received it, my headache began.1. It took me 2 hrs to activate it. I was transferred from department to department, working with different people, dropped serveral times. They don't even have my plan information from Amazon.com!! 2. Nightmare! I received the first bill yesterday. I am charged for long distance service. I found out they actually activated another plan, but without free long distance!!! The Nextel simply told that they don't offer National Value 300 any longer since Oct. suggest a plan at more than $40 which I don't need!! Faint! I didn't do anything wrong. I ordered an available product within promotion period. No warning on anything! The only thing I did wrong is trusting the compliments on Nextel in this category. I am arguing with Amazon.com. I want my free long distance back, or returning the product with full refund. I am still waiting to see ... Again, take a second opnion when you look at Nextel

Summary: Good, but...
Review: Right now nextel doesn't exactly cut it for me. I live/work/travel to many out of the way places and rarely did a nextel phone work where I am. If I had to reccomend a phone with direct connect- style capability, I would reccomend Motorola's v60p (on verizon) but if you're not looking for d/c... go with Sprint. You'll like Sprint's data service more.

Summary: Phone is good, service is bad!
Review: I bought this phone back in dec 2002. It came with a rebate for $150. I filled out the forms and mailed it to Nextel, NEVER receiving the rebate! I called and they told me that there was nothing they could do. That if I called sooner they could have had me fill out another form. Well I waited so long because the form I filled out said wait a min of 12 weeks! Also they have been messing up my bill every month, charging me for minutes that should be in my plan, PLUS my plan has been changing. The phone is good however Nextel as a company is not the best.

Summary: NYC Nextel i90c
Review: First of all Nextel service is great in New York City (except Staten Island). I get reception pretty much all the time, only when im in the subway do i lose reception.
As for the phone, I really enjoy it. I've made a few modifications to my phone with the help of an iden cable (around $10-$20) ideninsider.com and bubbasiden.com (both are free websites and give you information on how to add ringtones, make your keypad flash to your ringtones and a few other mods you can do)
Its a great phone w/ great features and i am very happy with it.
