BOISE, ID — In its continuing effort to provide the most reliable wireless service in Idaho, Verizon Wireless, owner and operator of the nation's most reliable wireless network, has expanded its network with a key cell site in Boise, Idaho.

"We believe customers choose Verizon Wireless and stay with us because they know they'll get wireless service they can depend on," said Jeff Mango, regional president of Verizon Wireless. "The company's $68 million investment in its premier wireless network in Idaho over the past four years demonstrates Verizon Wireless' commitment to customer satisfaction."

Thanks to the newest Verizon Wireless cell site in Idaho, visitors and residents in Boise are now experiencing increased coverage at the intersection of River Street and Pioneer Street in downtown Boise and surrounding areas.

The new cell site is part of Verizon Wireless' multi-billion dollar network investment each year to stay ahead of growing demand in Idaho for the company's popular voice and data services, including TXT Messaging, Picture Messaging, NationalAccess wireless Internet service, VZ Navigator and Get It Now® ring tones, games, productivity applications and more.

The company's 'most reliable network' claim is based on network studies performed by real-life test men and test women throughout the country who inspired the "Can you hear me now? Good®" national advertising campaign. These engineers conduct more than 750,000 voice call attempts and 1.4 million data tests quarterly on Verizon Wireless' and other national carriers' networks while traveling over 225,000 miles quarterly in specially equipped, company-owned test vehicles.
