Its not a crappy phone. Actually just bought a u740 from ryanmcell. Good seller btw. my plan consists of 400min, free nights/weekends bla bla and the $10 texting plan. Ok so its closer to $55 a month. Still cheaper than an iphone would be.

Only downfall is you gotta carry 2 devices. it would be nice to just have an iphone but the monthly plans for the 3G are retarded. And because everybody I know has verizon, I use about…25 of those 400min per month.

Yeah the normal monthly plan isn’t cheap, but for what you get, as compared to other carriers and phones, it’s pretty much on par. Unlimited Data being the main thing there. It’s only $30/month on the iPhone.

An extra $30 a month seems like alot…for internet…on a phone.

^ it is

but it’s honestly kind of worth it for the convenience of it. It’s nice being able to do just about anything online (outside of flash) anywhere you want, as long as you have a signal

I used to have cricket and the internet service was down right castrating lol

I am on that plan.

I have 900 min w/ Rollover + iPhone Data + Unlimited Texting

Comes to like 109 + taxes but I get a 20% discount so my bill is about 105 each month which my company pays 1/2 of.

yeah, it’s ok… found it to be a little slow (even from inside the LAN) but ok for most uses. That could be from the VNCserver I was running though (ultravnc)
