Neal, stop laughing.
oh yeah, I need it by tommorow
If you're looking for prepay, go with GoPhone from ATT. It's the prepay of choice for my talkative daughter. If you decide to take the plunge with a contract, do NOT use Sprint. I just switched to Sprint from Verizon and while it is a little bit less expensive monthly, I've never had so many dropped calls and poor signal areas with Verizon.

My two cents, anyway.

Agreed.. we switched from T-Mobile to Sprint. Even though T-Mobile was not the greatest, Sprints coverage seems to be worse. However, I do love my HTC Mogul.. hehe

We will most likely switch to Verizon when our contract runs out in the fall. I just hope I can get a decent smart phone there.

What he said, but not entirely! Though you know my thoughts on the subject.

One of these should suit you down to the ground:




Or at least weigh you down.

A phone for your prison cell?

Nope, you already used up your 1 phone call...

This should be just what you need Niki.....a little training and I'm confident you'll soon master the operational intricacies.

I had a set of these. All I could hear was the sound of the ocean. Much like when I put a sea shell to my ear.


I have the Samsung ACE. It is about a year and half old. Works well. Much like Jims Blackberry.

I'm not the greatest fan of Microsoft, but I still am partial to an operating system that I can customize and make the way I want. Apple and BlackBerry force a this is the way it is approach, and that I don't like. I might like the Android too, but I don't know enough about it yet.

The Tilt will run any software you want that has ever been written for CE or Pocket PC or Windows Mobile. So does this make it the software King without even trying? CE has been around since the early 90's.
