US service availability

I've had my tri-band Sony Z600 on O2 for a while and it has been to
the states several times and served me well. Last year I did a 7000
mile road trip from San Francisco in a big circle as far east as N/S
Dakota and back to San F. In all that time I received a service in
only 4 places - San Francisco, Las Vegas, Moab Utah and somewhere in
Kansas briefly when a text arrived. It was definitely no service and
not no signal, as several times I saw people using phones in fairly
remote areas, and in reasonably sized towns where there should have
been service.

Although I've covered large distances on the eastern side of the US -
east coast to Indiana, down to Mississippi and back to east coast
without a problem, I began thinking it was time for a quad band update
as this was possibly the reason for no service. However a couple of
friends recently did a road trip - California, Arizona and Nevada, and
they said their service with their quad band phones was also
appalling. I'm not sure who their provider is - probably O2 or Virgin.

So.... is it down to the provider, lack of quad, or both? Anybody
highly recommend a UK provider who can do better than O2? Thanks.
