I just started with a super cheap phone service, Cricket. Unlimted everything basically at $40 a month, the only bad thing is some of their phones are crap.

It's in cali, but limited coverage.

I go prepaid $30 400 anytime, and unlimited text..no contract

But my sister does Verizon with all the stuff you wanted and loves it, before she had Nextel and hated it..

HI:
I use Palm Treo 700W, Windows Mobile 5,
$44 monthly data pkg, have never recd any additional charges.
--Has phone, camera, Video recorder, plays songs, text, probably more I never use.
__I like the appts it stores, and the contacts,
-- I also just slip an sd card from my camera in it to back up, using sprite..
-- Very fast on line, pics crisp.. use i think EVO its called? anyhow, its broadband,
--you can change the ip- by simply clearing cache/cookies, pull the battery out for 60 secs, and restart--new ip..

I love my Iphone. A million and one uses and still counting. Best phone I have ever had for those time when you find your stuck someplace for a long time like the hospital,oil change,post office lines,etc. love the widescreen movies and you can get movies still at the theater for free. I have the 8 gig and am suprised how much music and movies it holds in mp3(Music)/mp4(Movies) format, I keep arround 12 movies and 2k in songs on it at all times. It has a 2mp camera plenty good enough for ebay pics. The internet is great. keep the 1.1 os and install jail brake. And it works great for wardriving I used to use one of those keychain locators like those at wal mart for 20 bucks but they dont tell you if it is a secure network or not and saves a lot of time decripting the wep. keep in mind it isnt against the law to guess someones password only to steal it

Yeah, I heard this from another person on here. He loved this phone, loved it.
But don't you just hate having to upgrade phones every year? Just learn to use
a cell phone and woof! Gotta update.

My plan is arround $60 for 250 Min, 1000 Txt, Unlimited internet. That works best for me being I dont text much or ever use the 250 Minutes. I think that is the lowest plan they have, 2-yr contract. it does a great job syncing each time you dock it updates your bookmarks in addition to appointments, phone numbers, email, etc. One time I had thought I had lost a years worth of bookmarks (Backup....what) on system restore when the phone synced the next time it put them all back on my desktop.

HI:L
The Treo is thro9ugh Verizon Wireless. I have a $44.99/mo data plan, and I have 2 cells on my acct, total bill under $200/mo.--includes,

--Great Phone/Clear- and 1x/month u do a *228 and it updates your roaming capability.. We are on East Coast- have been to my sisters on west coast-still clear and all while on vacation in Disney-very clear.The antenna is built in.
--Runs windows MObile 5--Clear big screen--fast loads..
--i like it better than the Audiovox 6600ppc i had last year, as u couldnt work that with 1 hand while driving..:)

wow all you people with your fancy plans :( i just have an unlimited incoming and 100 daytime minutes for 25$ a month lol.

so..how do you clear cookieson the palm???

Smart Phone Debate
 

I am going to be buying a smart phone in the very near future. I am going with cingular AT&T and am trying to decide between the Blackjack II or the Motorola Q Global.

What i want out of a smart phone is a fast and easy to use internet, Good email service, something good for instant messenging, Being able to view Office documents and prefer to be able to edit the documents. (Only being able to view is a priority).

Any other info on these phones would be great, but i would like to know which one you guys prefer

I don't know for office documents but for browsing the web and managing your emails the Blackberry's the king! I've been using a windows mobile smartphone from Motorola (t-mobile) in the past and it's nothing compared with the blackberry...

BlackBerry

What cell phones do you have? Which cell phone do you like?
 

Im currently using a 8gb iphone. To tell you the truth I was kinda stupid getting this phone in august '08. I spent over $1000 for this phone now you gonna be saying how in the world did he do that and gosh is he stupid. Well this is how it happend:
I saw ads of the iphone in june and in july and I was hooked. I wanted to get it soo badly and I mean really really badly. So when I started ebay in july I made enough money to pay alot of bills and then in august I went ahead and bought the iphone. I paid $645 for the iphone and then I paid $200 for termination of contract from tmobile and then I paid for the activation fee of $36 and then I paid the first months bill $70. Funny thing is 2 weeks later the price dropped to $399 :mad:
So now Im gonna be waiting until the iphone comes out in 2009 as its gonna have more apps and way better design.
I basically do everything from my iphone I love it :)
To tell you the truth once you use a phone for about six months you get sick of it. Thats what happens to me :D

So how about you guys/gals what cell phone do you use? What phones do you like?

John, Are you the Tax Man? Not even ebay asks this much.:rolleyes:
You want to know SO much about us!. For mobile phones I have two carrier pigeons, Sony & Nokia. LOL.;)

Just trying to make friends and have a nice conversation. Nothin more :)
This thread I made was for people who are in love with cell phones. I myself love cell phones :D
Do you love cell phones greenbeen?

I love paypal.:p I LOVE paypal.:rolleyes:

What??? LOL

That was humor. I hate paypal.Yes, I love cell phones especially when they are turned off, the battery is not charged AND I do not get calls from idiots.Yep, love the cell phone then.:p

Everybody LOVES paypal ;) Would have helped me understand if you would have just added a smilies! Well I basically love new features in cell phones and I use my phone ALL the time. Your point understood :D

I'm waiting until July 11th when the 3g iphone comes out, yep that'll be mine. :)

Well up until a couple days ago i was using a blackberry 8820 which was a gift to myself since ebays going well. BUT i think i may have left it in a cab so im pretty sure thats gone forever! So now im using a very [insert expletive] nokia. Back to saving up for another one.

I have a Nokia right now. Don't ask me what model, no idea. My wife's sister buys a new cell phone every 2 weeks. I'm not joking. So I always beg her to give me her latest 2 weeks old cell phone. I'm guessing she spends about $2,000 a month on cell phones.

Aspkin I recommed you wait til 2009 to get the new iphone because its gonna have a bunch of new apps and a brand new design even heard its going to have the front facing camera for face to face conversation. I have my heart set on the '09 iphone but I dont know if I can resist getting the 3g iphone :D

Wow I never lost a cell phone in my whole life. From the first cell phone I got in 5th grade til now I never a lost a phone. My phone is the first thing I look for when getting off my car. Although I always have my phone with me in my pocket. A nokia 3220 I think was my first cell phone. Nokias arent bad but the older ones are. I like the n series. You check out the n96 its a beauty. :)

Wow I gotta meet your wifes sister to talk about cell phones :D
I dont even buy a cell phone every two weeks!
I buy a new cell phone every 6 months or so.
Does she keep a collection of cell phones?

Nope. She'll put them in the garbage. Seriously. She's nuts. Her husband works his butt off and she wastes it on cell phones. I actually saved one cell phone from the garbage a few months back. I asked what was wrong with it and if I could go and fix it ...she said oh..nothing wrong. you can have it. i just got sick of it. Now I'm trying to convince her that she should get an iPhone. Because I want one, I just don't want to pay for it. :D

I have a Blackberry (Telus) and I use it for almost everything from phone calls to facebook. They (RIM) have announced a new version of the phone for this summer so I'm saving my money to buy it when it comes out.

LOL. Wow man she just throws it in the garbage wow. What does her husband do?
Yah bro go for it tell her to get the iphone 3g after july 12. shell probably get sick of it by july 26 and there you go you just got a new phone. :)

I never gave blackberry a try they dont seem my kinda phone but gotta admit they are pretty nice with the new models. Why dont you get the bb 8320 its a very nice phone. :)

Can't go wrong with the Blackjack 2, that's what I have. My carrier is AT&T, great service and everywhere I go I always have a strong signal. My bro is a Project Manager for construction related job, he goes all over the state and he always has a signal.

I can't wait for the 3g to come out now... My POS cricket phone is very limited...

Apple - iPhone

Come On July 11!!!

I am waiting a few months for the new Google Androids to come out. Super cheap plans and they are supposed to blow away the Iphones.

Are Iphones that good?

I used one for about a week in Vegas, it did it's job.

Hey aspkin what are you currently using?
Yep I agree I have been using the iphone for about 10 months only thing I dont like safari crashes on me almost 3-4 times a day.

Yes the iPhones safari is really easy to use and is pretty fast. Only thing I don't like is it crashes 3-4 times in one day. I think it crashes because I use it about 12 hours a day or maybe even more. Overall its really good. Modee you an apple loving guy you should have just got the iPhone.

Yes Modee, it's pretty nice on the web. That was the only thing holding me back when Iphone first came out. But since I had about a week to use it and it worked for this forum pretty well, I plan on getting it when 3g is released. I might be heading back to Vegas in a couple weeks as well. :)

Time to win more money. :)

I don't like gambling I lose more money than I win. Aspkin what casino game do you really play?
What was the biggest amount you won?

Texas Hold'em Only. Everything else I lose at.

I won $2700 the first day I was there, about two months ago.

Yo aspkin that's good man. I played with $5 in one of those machines with the three thingys going until the stop (sorry kinda out of it Im tired but I don't feel like sleeping). I didn't win and walked right out of ther angry that I lost my $5 bucks. You know if they had monopoly I would win them out soo bad man. Im really good at monopoly I love it its soo fun don't you agree?
You learned Texas hold em yourself?
