I recommend cingular if you dont mind a contract. I'm not a fan of sprint's signal quality in the midwest. If you're looking for a quickie no problems phone. I guess you can try metro pcs.

From what I'm hearing .. the RAZR's have a bad track record for failures... and short battery life... not to mention the rediculously small keypad.... just repeating what a provider says.Quote:

I've had T-Mobile a few years now. Smooth. No problems.Quote:

You'll notice that T-Mobile has the least amount of coverage area in southeast Michigan than the others. But Verizon doesnt do much for yiou in the northern areas. IMO ATT and Sprint have the most area locked down.
Not that anyone cares, but looks like I'm going with Alltel.
2 MotoRazr v3m phones/1200 shared mins + other bennies
The MyCircle thing gets you 10 numbers that you can call for free too.
$69.99/mo.
GET IN THE VAN
Thanks for the help, guys.
I have Alltel, they better not try to jack my rates.Quote:
Verizon Wireless will acquire Alltel Communications LLC for $5.9 billion in cash and the assumption of $22.2 billion in debt.
I HAVE A CONTRACT, DAMMIT
That's good news. I have Verizon but my parents are on Alltel. That should put them in my network. I wonder if they'll drop the my circle or apply it to verizon customers.
Yup, this is right. I've only had one dropped call this month -- not too bad, and it's not like I live right next to a tower.Quote:

I'm not the demographic they're targetting, but it works and is cheap and hasn't been much of a hassle at their end.
