1. well, this is asinine!

i was counting the days until AT&T took over Tmobile (who I currently have, and loved until the news came out and Tmobile's formerly great customer service plummeted); at that point, I would have purchased verizon's service. I will not do that now, I'll probably end up going with one of the prepaid services.

2. I think that Sprint is the only one left that offers a unlimited everything plan.

As much as you want of anything that you want to do.
I'm very happy!
