everyone exact verison.

i personally would never switch from verizon, the network is just too good, my girlfriend is switching from cingular to verizon once the contract is up and her brother recently switched from nextel to verizon...

what kind of contract are you under paying $71 a month, i suggest finding one that better suits your needs and doesnt give you things that you dont actually use.

are you paying for text messages in advance, are you paying for IN messages and not texting people with verizon? are you paying for 1000 messages a month but texting only verizon customers?

I pay $59.99 for my plan and $5 for texts which I use every now and again.

I keep trying to getmy girlfriend to switch over but she is like...we are just locked in to our contract. (She is in a family plan with her ex...I have my reservations about that...) I've told her that I would pay her way out of Cingular too...but she won't take it.

GSM and EDGE are two different things. EDGE (faster form of GPRS) is for wireless internet and GSM is pretty much you mobile network coverage.

The beauty of GSM is that you're not stuck using a carriers lineup of phones.

i work for Verizon and i hate them

for the record, Verizon, Sprint and Alltell are CDMA

Nextel does free incoming from everyone but they suck so bad its not even worth it, plus those plans are very expensive.

The only network even close to Verizon is Cingular, and thats only in certain areas. I personaly like T Mobile if thier coverage is good in your area.

holla! I've been with Cingular for almost 2 years now and I've been nothing but happy with their service/offers/coverage. I'm due to sign another contract in June. h:
