Cell phones
Cell coverage has gotten better in the last few years. Still there are many "dead spots."

Two popular services that work in Trinity Center and Trinity Knolls are Verizon Wireless and Sprint. ATT&T/Cingular phones currently do not work in this area, see note below about future tower.

U.S. Celluar has recently installed a tower south of the airport.
