My feelings exactly Dan.  I have a prepaid from TMobile.  I got the phone originally from AT&T.  I took it back to AT&T or one of their descendents to get it unlocked so I could switch it to another carrier.  The kids working there passed it around to each other to marvel at, as it was so "out of date" to them.

I paid TMobile $100 the first year I had it.  Since then, I spend $10 or $20 a year to extend coverage for another year and add another 100-200 minutes or so.  I've never come close to running out of minutes.

I have a computer that handles stuff that most people do with their phones.  I don't use text messaging, and if anyone sends me a text, it just goes into the trash without being read.  Anyone I want to communicate with knows that.  I can take pictures with a camera, and send them to anyone else on earth if they want them with my computer.

One thing is a little bit more difficult for me than it is for others.  Before I moved to Washington, i could look up a phone number in a telephone book.  Here, telephone books seem hard to come by.  Oh well.  mcneely
