We started brainstorming about two years ago after my wife and I visited New York and ate at a rice pudding place.

There are too many opportunities in New York. We can't live too far away.

Back then, my air fare on Eastern Airlines to fly from Florida to where Marge was stationed in New York was $16. It was the most important flight I ever made.

I was looking in the back of The New York Times for ads for homes in New Hampshire, and there weren't any, ... but there was this scrunched-up photograph of a supposedly Palladian villa outside of Venice.

Our New York customers are among the most demanding and tech savvy in the nation and, while other wireless carriers play catch-up, we will continue to deliver the reliable and innovative services our customers demand. In 2006, we'll continue to focus on the fundamentals of our business - providing the best network, superior customer service and advanced, innovative products and services - day in and day out, one customer at a time.

New York is our No. 1 destination.
