I just bought 3 cell phones, so now what?
I just bought 3 cell phones from a neighbor, two Nokia's and one Motorola.

All three work, I just don't have any service yet.

What do I do?

Keep any of them?
All three?

Decisions, decisions...

4. Cell phones are programmed with systems
That are distinct for each service provider. This means that if one phone is programmed on the Verizon system, it cannot be moved to the Cingular system. It makes buying used cells a problem. Chances are that if you get one activated, the other two will sit dormant in a closet (unless you want three service providers - in which case you'd probably have to be in the top 10% just to afford that).
