Cricket USED TO have terrible coverage, as did every other carrier during their first 2-3 years of operation. Now they're ranked 1st or 2nd in each of their established markets. You're also wrong about having no roaming. They have extensive roaming agreements with other major CDMA carriers, and enough included roaming minutes for the moderate traveler. Get it right!
I do agree that their phone selection is pretty poor, and their limited data offerings are embarrassing. They're starting to catch up with some pretty nice non-smart-phone models.
If you don't need a smart-phone or data, their offering is unbeatable.
