Verizon scored high marks in Overall, Reliability, Coverage, and Customer Service, leading me to believe that perhaps this survey was taken before their infamous $350 ETF (http://gizmodo.com/5431184/verizon-defends-350-early-termination-fee-to-the-fcc). AT&T's wide margin of victory in the Products category is likely due largely to the iPhone, while T-Mobile eeked out a win in Value, which, I guess it's all relative.

But enough about winners! Let's talk about Sprint. Dead last in three of the main six categories, not first in any of the extended sixteen. At least they get a Participant ribbon?
