As determined as I am, it nis still in my jacket pocket ;) What a hassle, the mail slot is like 5 feet from my desk... Too much work.. makes me tired to think about it. I think I'll nap instead.Shane C.

I'm glad to hear a national company actually has good customer service. I seriously considered moving over to Verizon, but some of the places we go here in N.C. MT just don't have coverage unless your with Chinook, plus they partnered up with Cingular now so I shouldn't get bent over should I be roaming.<BR/><BR/>I may need to check into that internet deal, sounds pretty cheep! Is it slower than dialup? I did spring for the bluetooth earpiece, and I love it. I had been using the wired version but I don't think my in car safety was improved, as the wire kept getting spun into a Gordian Knot. <BR/><BR/>As for the mp3 function, my phone has a limit of 50 songs no matter how big a card you get, which I was not all that excited about, but I suppose three hours or so of music really should be good enough.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, good to see you back up over here, I can't imagine keeping track of posts at three sites! I have a hard enough time remembering where I've commented! Have a good weekend.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26869571.post-1165651648245652782006-12-09T00:07:00.000-08:002006-12-09T00:07:00.000-08:00I got the $5 per mont internet.

No sending, like you said, I think that a carrier pigeon would work better than me trying to keypad an email.<BR/><BR/>In all fairness, their call in tech support was awesome. Since I wanted to switch numbers between mine and my wifes phone (she got my old one and I got the cool one) and I don't have a land line, we had to get sneaky. First he activated her old phone with my number, assigned he number to my old phone and then assigned my number to the new phone. It was funny though because once we would switch numbers on a phone, he would call me on it so I could hang up the other and disconnect it to change the number. Took us an hour or so.<BR/><BR/>Yeah, I like this phone. The only thing is that I don't have a micro sd card to play music yet. Or a head set. After I had to pay the $50, there was no way I was getting the accessory pack from them.Shane C.

As you may <A HREF="http://www.mtmis.net/?p=54/" REL="nofollow">know</A> I recently did a little upgrading myself. I share your frustration with the knuckleheads at the cellphone store. The only thing that is worse for me is trying to call customer service. I went three falls out of four with a cell company to resolve a billing dispute, needless to say I'm not with them anymore.<BR/><BR/>So did you sign up for the data service? I bought a razr and it has that capability as well, but I figured me trying to type an email on a phone keypad would take longer than sending a letter with a stamp, so I didn't spring for it.<BR/><BR/>I <I>really</I> wanted an excuse to get one of those phones with the qwerty keyboard, but I couldn't come up with a good enough reason to pony up for it. That and I really like the flip phone, as I have a penchant for bumping into things. Anyway, have fun with your new toy, I'm still trying to work my way through mine. Maybe by the time I have it figured out It'll be time to upgrade again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
