What EXACTLY does no roaming mean?

I apologize if someone's already asked this question recently...

I need a phone that works in two places: at school in VA and at home in WV.

The house in WV has trouble with cell phone reception. Neither Ntelos or Sprint worked out there. I was told (before the merger) that AT&T worked... but now I am wary.

What exactly does no roaming charges mean? How do I find out if I'm going to roam and be charged? Can I do it soon enough to return the phone and get most of my money back (I know they keep the activation fee usually).

In any case I like Cingular so far... but could just go with Alltel, if this is to be a hassle.

Any info would be fantastic.

If you have a National GSM coverage plan then no roaming means just that.. No Roaming. As long as you have signal you have coverage and will not be charged roaming fees.
