the largest and most reliable* wireless network in the country. Leveraging
its greatest asset - its network - Verizon Wireless continues to lead
the industry by offering the highest quality products and services while

The Verizon Wireless network is built for reliability
in emergencies, with battery back-up power at all facilities and for additional
reliability, generators installed at all switching facilities, and many
cell site locations. The company also owns a fleet of portable generators
that can be deployed to provide emergency power during extended power
outages to those cell sites without permanent generators.

1XRTT is the company’s national high-speed wireless data network,
providing fast wireless Internet service, with bursts up to 144 kilobits

being produced by competing technologies and comparable to, if not faster,
than what PC users get when using a dial-up Internet service.
