Las Vegas, Nevada Customers Receive Even More 3G Coverage With Two New Verizon Wireless Cell Sites

Investment increases consumer value as demand grows for calls, e-mail, text, Web, video and music.

LAS VEGAS, NV — Southern Nevada residents, businesses and visitors are enjoying improved service thanks to two new Verizon Wireless cell sites added in the fourth quarter. The sites expand 3G wireless coverage:

•In the Del Webb Sun City community and north to West Alexander Road; and
•In the southwest communities of Rhodes Ranch and Mountain’s Edge and west to the Blue Diamond Highway.
The increase in network coverage and capacity means more calls, e-mails, text and picture messages, plus expanded wireless access to the Web.

Verizon Wireless invested nearly $50 million in Nevada in 2008 to enhance service and coverage. Nationally, the company has invested more than $50 billion in its network since it was formed in 2000. The result is the nation’s largest, most reliable wireless voice and 3G network. A side-by-side comparison of 3G network coverage maps shows that Verizon Wireless has more 3G coverage than the three other major carriers.

“Our voice and 3G network is what makes it possible for customers to truly enjoy the features of their devices like making calls, messaging, downloading apps, checking e-mail and surfing the Web,” said Tony Heyman, regional president, Verizon Wireless. “It’s the power behind our devices, like this holiday’s must-have smartphone, the DROID by Motorola.”

Verizon Wireless tests its network and those of its competitors. The company determines if voice calls and data connections are successful on the first attempt and stay connected.

Nationally, Verizon Wireless’ real-life test men and women drive 91 specially equipped vehicles almost one million miles annually. They drive on Interstate, U.S. and state highways, as well as major roads and streets in high-population areas, based upon U.S. Census counts. Vehicles are equipped with computers that automatically make more than three million voice call attempts and more than 16 million data tests annually on Verizon Wireless’ network and the networks of other carriers.
