Sup people. So I've had Verizon cell phone service since I was like 18 and they have been decent with a few bumps along the road. My 2 year contract is coming up for renewal in July and I'm contemplating switching providers. Right now I'm paying like $89 for 1350 minutes + unlimited texts with no internet data plan or anything... and that includes a 20% monthly discount. I feel like that's really not that great of a deal.
Soon I'm going to need SMS texting and online Google Calendar sync ability due to upcoming promotion. I stopped by the Sprint store and checked out some of their plans and phones. $99.00 for unlimited minutes, texts and internet usage. Sprint apparently has EVDO which I was told is better than 3G? And will be coming out with 4G soon in Charlotte I was also told. I can pick up a crackberry Curve or Pearl for like $50 too.
What are your thoughts on your providers and their available phones? I feel like this question has been asked here before, but the MM forum search function sucks and I'm tired and lazy. I'm going to check out the AT&T store here soon. I haggled with the guy at Sprint and it seems like if I bitch enough they'll buy out my Verizon contract...whatever they are going to make me owe on early termination.
