You can get a cheap old phone for free...

Just think of what you could've done with 400 bucks. That's 4 high quality hookers for a night. :P

Most companies are a standard 2 year contract with a steep equipment discount, some offer a 1 year contract option with a smaller equipment discount.

Month to month is not commonly available outside of Prepaid type services as a startup plan.

I got the Helio ocean (awesome phone, look it up on youtube) and have the unlimited everything plan (data, txt, msgs, minutes) for $99/mo

I have ATT or Cingular... and just whatever cheep free phone they had last time I renewed my contract lol I don't even know what brand it is... I don't pay that much attention

Nokia 3310.

I have the Green Chocolate from Verizon.

It's a piece of shit, though. The battery only lasts 1 day, and that's only if you don't use any special features. I've got about 150 songs on it, which is the main reason I still have it. I either want the newer Chocolate that just came out or an upgrade to a diff. Verizon phone. I've used Verizon for about 5 years now and I've always been satisfied with them.

Damn 1 day? I'm lucky to get a full day at work, let alone from when I wake up til when I go to bed, it's usually giving me the 'battery low' signal around 10:00pm.

Mine usually doesn't crap out until 2 days of use, unless I'm on it constantly. It's a shitty and beat-up phone, but I guess it's alright.

I have a friend that has a helio.

Kaneda and I pay about 105 a month but that's for 2 phones, unlimited txt, unlimited internet access and like 700 mins.

And I get battery power up to about a day depending on how much i txt and have the internet window open.

I've got the Verizon lg 5200 I think. Getting a new plan this fall, so I'll be picking up a new phone as well. This is what my brother currently has, which I'm debating getting. http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/s...edPhoneId=2627

My new Verizon enV arrived today, it's pretty cool so far. I'll be reading the manual at work tonight. :D

I have an LG Sprint music phone, but I have no idea how to put my damn music on it :(.

Anyone have an iPhone?

FUCK the Iphone!

lol I know right! Some of my friends want one, but I just think it's a bad investment when you're in college.

i have T-mobile too, the stripe i think its callled. Service sucks. i don't get it anywhere but work. oh the irony.

It's a nice idea, and I'd have one just to say I've got one... but not until the third generation at least. By then all the bugs will be ironed out, the phone will be built a lot better, it'll be cheaper and... erm... third generation, yeah.

My old landlord came around and showed us pictures on his the day after they came out. What an asshole.

Hahaha. He's got his priorities right. Good man! :p

It's kinda like how I took pictures of the PS3 and showed everyone at school the next day. How they hated me. :D

I'd get an iPhone, after a while and when I can afford a frivolous expense like that. :)
