dang, i hear ya...i think im about to switch to att....yeah, and pay sprint's ridiculous early termination fee and get in and save a hoot joining in a family plan. It's going to be weird not having unlimited data,minutes,roaming,and a nice phone, but 100 plus a month for one phone ain't what a student needs

what att phones are nice? i see the iphone 3 for 200, 3gs for 19, some android and and some widnows phones...whats good?

Are you wanting a smart phone? Several guys I work with have the motorola atrix and like it. The iphone 4 is really nice. I've heard the windows 7 phones are pretty neat but the apps are limited right now.

Ya so far its either the attic or the inspire. I already have the evo so the inspired would be almost identical but the attic has a dual core processor and 1 gig of ram....

Does art charge extra for their 4g like sprint?

I think AT&T and Verizon have a set rate, I am paying $30 for data per phone. I am not sure what phones AT&T has but this phone I got is only droid that does netflix and you can hook to HD TV and watch netflix on big screen and I was told you can run to dvr and copy.

AT&T doesn't have 4G at this time. I"ve read that they are moving to an upgraded version of their current 3G setup, and down the road they will have LTE like Verizon. I think their regular 3G is faster than Sprint and I know it's faster than Verizon.

Guys I work with have Sprint, AT&T, and Verizon. I know the ones with AT&T are having alot of trouble useing their phones in the break room, Sprint and Verizon seem to be doin better but I think Verizon is doin the best right now. I tried mine last night and it played 45min of swamp people on youtube none stop where my Sprint phone would never have done that but it did make and recive calls when the guys with AT&T could not

7-31-11 is when centennialwireless in DeRidder switches to Verizon. We already received our new phones in the mail. They sent them 30+ days early for us to put our contacts in and get used to the phone before their activated. Liking the service so far. I work on Ft Polk and i heard service sucks here. We'll have to wait and see.

Some of you may want to consider T-mobile.Im on the Northshore and have 0 problems,I dont do too much traveling though.It worked fine when I was in Lake Charles and fine at the camp in Meridian.I have unlimited everything on two phones and a third phone for the kids and I pay $145 a month.I have the 3G mytouch and love it.Actually Ive had it longer than I've had any phones in the past so its pretty tough!!
