I do about 5,000 texts a month and verizon is charging me up the butt for it! I have 500 dollar cell bills for two months in a row! so im cancelling this weekend and going somewhere else!

So these are my requirements

unlimited text plan
video phone/camera phone
web browser
2,000 daytime mins


any suggestions on carriers and phones?

Thanks

uh, all places should have unlimited for like $10
how about calling instead of texting.
if there's 5,000 it's probably conversations...which means calling would work better.

Cingular down here doesnt do that. They did for a few months but not anymore. I pay 9.99 a month for 1,000 text.

i went to cingular but their camera/video phones were like 300 bucks and thats rediculous! I looked at sprint phones but the keypads arent big enough for texting!

i need a phone i can place down and not have to look at to text...the smaller the buttons the harder the no-look text is

how bout get a plan that includes everything you want and buy a phone from a retailer or something.. you can do it with T-Mobile and Cingular (i think)

Thats what I did, since my phone is basicly a sim card (teh brain) I bought a phone from the Philippines when I went there.. its hella cheap too

I sold my samsung there and they were all looking at it like its a new model hehe

tmobile offers unlimited text, email, and aim on the sidekick and is $20 extra/month. verizon has unlimited "IN" messaging which is similar but only pertains to verizon users only. that cost $5/month. cingular goes all the way to 2500 messages/month for $20. sprint has unlimted text for $15/month.

hmmmm i cant help but comment on ur feedback biggrin.gif



tmobile? sure if you want a sidekick, but who wants that? haha

Verizon? SURE if she wants to stay w/ the company she is already with & hates!

cingular $20 for 2500??? ehhhhh she texts way more than that (i should know, I get half of them haha)

Sprint is only $10 & its unlimited! not $15 silly boy - cant beat that biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

hey theres nothing wrong with a sidekick!! i had one for 2 years. i guarantee u cannot find a better text messaging phone. it does AIM just as easy as on the computer. qwerty phones (like my lg vx9800 and the sidekick) are the only way to text. forget iTap and t9 predictive text, lol. thats so 90's.

as for sprint, i guess they lowered the price. =)

but for whatever reason tmobile didnt offer unlimited text w/ that phone even though it had AIM just like on the side kick where its like being on a computer.

sidekick in my & natalie's opinion is too bulky & we would rather use t9 than a keyboard lol

Ive been with Sprint for like 3 years....& the unlimited text has been $10 the whole time, hmmm! smile.gif
