Lets just say that what I have to say isn't very nice, so I won't go into great detail, but their performance was subpar.

PTT was a 6
Interconnect was a 3
My office is very close to one of the County Emergency Operation Centers that was affected by Wilma and for the last 2 days the site that is closest to me and them has been off line with no RF coming from it.
Oh well NEXTEL, better luck next year in improving your network cause you were shown up again by Verizon and Cingular that kept on operating.

The local site to me is still out of service as of this morning, so here we are into day 3.
