what are you switching from and what are you looking to get?
I have 1350 anytime minutes, a plan leftover from college. I don't need that many and I have thousands of rollover minutes. My two-year contract with ATT expired a couple months ago.

What I want to get is the iPhone but you need to get the 30$ data plan. There is a 450 minute plan for 39, 900 minutes for 69 IIRC, and after that it just gets too expensive. Plus I need texts. 200 for $5 would probably be enough.

But with the 900 plan it's already looking like over $100/month with taxes. Just freaking insane amount of money with such limited coverage.

There's an A-List plan where you get to call any 5 numbers at any time for free, but that's 69 as it is.

    Don't undersetimate the amount of texts you send though, I only though I used about 500 a month about a year ago and I had 500 allotted, but then I found out I send ~1200 a month. I had to get unlimited.

    I think I text on average 5 per day, which would equal 150 a month. But yeah, that is another concern.

    I was supposed to teach Tindall's girlfriend how to ski yesterday, but she didn't want to go that day. They said they'd go today but I still haven't heard anything from them, so fuck it. I'm tired of pussy-ass shit. It's fucking skiing, not hang-gliding.

    Oh and Andy, do the 450 minutes a month plan. So far this month I have 435 minutes left. 4,979 NW, M2M is unlimited, and 4,348 RO.

    You'll keep your roll over minutes you currently have. Plus with free M2M and the massive NW of the plan, you'll never get in danger of running out.

    That's probably what I'll do at first. I think I have a few thousand rollovers left.

    Remind me. Do you have ATT?

    EDIT: I have used 0 out of 13,003 rollover minutes. :lol:

    Phone and contract shopping.

    I don't know if 450 anytime minutes will be good enough for me or not.

    Yeah I have ATT. They probably have the best plan for your money, especially with the RO. I had Alltel for a long time and it's comparable though the coverage is limited.
