I hate cell phones.
I like to tee off with them...
When I go into the mens room and hear some guy in a stall talking on the phone it annoys the hell out of me.
Wanna talk to me? Call my land line. If I dont pick up, too bad
Sometimes I'm just not available.

I'd let y'all know what the number is, but since I'm not an "old hand" I'm not eligible to receive or make drunk calls. Something about not being around long enough to be received into the community...
Bribes accepted.

I have at & t. I get 600 day minutes....which is before 9pm....and then free nites and weekends. Plus its the national plan...i can call anywhere free in the us. Reception is EXCELLENT. My ex had sprint....and shes now switching to At & t. You can get more minutes for your money. I would say major competition is between those two. Also if you don't talk alot, you could probably get something like 3-400 day minutes free nites and weekends for 29.99. Talk to ya soon

Sprint in south florida is like beating your head against a concrete wall only without the immediate returns...
Verizon, Nextel, and T-Mobile work really well down here. I'd switch, but I'll be home in illinois shortly where Sprint tends to have very good coverage.
The Nextel (iDen) push to talk feature is actually a lot cooler than it may sound at first, particularly if you gather up groups of friends a lot. "beep, bla-doop" but the service might still be too expensive for the casual user.

After being screwed by AT&T, I switched to US Cellular. My current $80/mo. plan has two phones/phone numbers sharing 800 anytime minutes (plus unlimited local night and weekend calls on one of the phones). I pay no roaming in 10 western states, nationwide long-distance is free as long as I'm in one of those 10 states, and the coverage is much more extensive than the strictly digital services such as Sprint. (I get analog coverage when driving between digital areas i.e. out in the boonies...this was necessary for me). All in all, I'm very happy with it.

Well you should be quite satisfied, the way you call the 1900 sexyouup numbers there buddy
I imagine a dropped call would be..........."frustrating"
see ya at the dz;

tmobile is not so great for travelling in FL. in the larger cities it's fine. but anywhere in the center of the state and travelling is pretty bad. If I drive from west palm to sarasota, I only have service for about 45 minutes of the trip. I'm switching mine soon. NO service from venice to fort myers/labelle either.

TMobile bites. My boss had it, that's why I had to research all the different companies. Because he was losing calls all the time. Hasn't lost any on Verizon travelling all over the US.

I got a used Audiovox CDM-4000 dual-mode (digital and analog) in good condition with a charger off eBay for about $12. Bought another one for even less just to get the spare battery.
Got it activiated with pre-pay at Verizon for $30 (200 min good for 60 days at a time, just add a little more at the end of 60 days to roll it over). 30 cents/min peak, 15 cents/min off-peak and weekends.
No plan, no commitment, no BS. Pay as you go, and dirt cheap, and there when you need it most.
Just call Verizon to find out if they can activate your phone. Verizon Web Site

Digital service is not available everywhere. My daughter lives 150 miles from me, and everytime I drive to get her for the weekend, I go through about 110 miles (each way) in which analog is the only signal I can get. Having a phone that can handle analog when digital isn't available is important for those of us who don't spend all our time in major cities, regardless of whether it is an outdated technology.

For now stay away from TMobile and Us Cellular. Sprint, Veriozon, Cingular and AT&T have the best coverage around. ALL of them have issues, sometimes it is the phone (not related to the carrier), and other times it is the switching software. I've had good usage from AT&T, however their customer service is now almost non-existant.
Personally, if I had to change companies right now - I would go with either Sprint or Cingular.

THe facts:
The Union CWA 13000 & other Locals will only go on strike if full time employment & Med Benifits are taken away. The Union is NOT fighting for higher wages (some t.v. stations are being require to retract that assumtion)
The company has 2 CEOs paid 4.3 million a piece and a severance of 53.8Million (+4 million per year for life)

Companies should be required to offer "1 free hands free" unit with every phone AND if caught driving with phone at ear(The 90% of the World=blind spot) should lose lic. for 30 days.
It's not the distration of phone it's the lack of looking around(try holding your hand to your ear without stopping it for 1 min, while phone calls last 15-20 mins)
My compay sells the "#1 choice" (whoopie
) and if we are spotted on the phone in a truck we lose 1 weeks pay!(and they do NOT supply us with them)_______________________________

Verizon Wireless employees are not on a collective bargaining agreement and thus, not striking. Verizon Wireless and Verizon Communications (the parent) are two separate companies. VZW will not be affected by the strike.
