In my area, yes, Verizon has better coverage.

It really depends where you are, neither network has full 3G coverage.

I Think it depends on the equipment ( Phone ) I had a Palm and it increase my signal from poor with a lesser phone to good almost great wit the Palm. Now I have a very cheap phone, for economy purposes and I am back to poor. All with Verizon. And friends with either the apple from At&t and the Droid with Verizon surpass me with their phones.

It really depends where you live. Not really the network.

It depends Verizon does have better coverage (the places were you have sinal) and at&t has faster download and upload speeds (or at least it advertises that it does)

By my home, my old verizon phones had better voice coverage. But the 3G internet was way slower than my iPhone (although a lot of that is probably the iPhone itself that is faster).

Generally speaking Verizon has better coverage and signal strength than AT&T. However keep in mind that it always depends on your area, or the location you are at.

In my area, believe it or not, they are about tied. I haven't noticed a difference since I switched to AT&T from Verizon.

Neither of these two networks over powers one another. It all varies depending on location upon the planet. In my area of New Jersey, Verizon has the better signal. If I was to walk two blocks down, AT&T might have the better signal. All depends on location.

You can compare Verizon's and AT&T's 3G coverage at each specific address using the > 3G Coverage Tool. Comparing the Coverage Maps side-by-side will give you a good idea of whether 3G coverage is better in your area.
