Cell phones...

[CrX3183]

How does $39.99 month to month with no contract, sound?
Free unlimited long distance, voicemail, and caller id...
Talk as much as you want as long as you want any time you want...

If your interested let me know...

uhm sounds like the almost-perfect cellular phone plan...

Other things that would make it ideal would be:
Nationwide Coverage
Free text messaging
Free Roaming
A wide selection of awesome phones

Yeah, totally.

Text messaging gets me up the ass. 10 cents a pop times 300= $30 in itself.

amie why dont u buy an extra 100 msgs for like 3 bux plan or sumthing versus paying 10$ for 100 msgs!

[wylin]

will plan is w/ cingular local and is non existent

400 minutes
unlimited mobile to mobile and nights/ weekends
100 text msgs
insurance which used every other month cuz dum 8890 breaks

50$?

Right now I pay $49.99 for:
600 anytime minutes
unlimited nights and weekends (begins at 8:00p.m.)
usual digital stuff (caller ID, voicemail, SMS capability)
free nationwide long distance
no roaming within all of CA and Las Vegas

That's good enough for me. I usually rack up about 1800 minutes per month but haven't gone over my included minutes in a loooong time. I imagine you teenagers probably get a lot more usage out of your phones though... I am on a contract (keep renewing for a year to get the newest deals) but I've been with the same carrier (AT&T, formerly known as LA Cellular) for ages anyway so I don't really mind. I just wish AT&T would get some nicer phones...=P

arex u will see similar phones to T-mobile/ voicestream/ Cingular because AT&T wireless is becoming a GSM based carrier versus the older TDMA system they use.

GSM carriers phones are pretty much universal unless locked by the carrier (u can find places to unlock) and interchangable because all use SIM cards and can swap back and forth and phone to phone the data/ numbers/ calling information.

I have no say in it whatsoever. Dad (or mom) decides everything, period. That's how it is in this lovely household of mine. "You don't like it, leave."

There is no roaming, for unlimited Text Messeges it's $5...

Talk as much as you want whenever you want, so that means you can talk anytime with unlimited long distance.

I'm interested.. where do I sign up??
This a repurtable company that won't go bellyup anytime soon?
Will it have good coverage in SD, LA, SF, NY where I might be?

Anyway.. I'm interested

[wylin]

hez probably describing new to west coast T-mobile or Voicestream. T-mobile i hear is probably not doing to well and Cingular corp is thinkin bout aquiring it shhhh thats what hear from my friends in that company...=)

i'm talking about METRO PCS.
T-Mobile is already using Cingular's Towers so the service already isn't that good.
