[QUOTE="Browncoat, post: 313913, member: 1061"] And just to show that I practice what I preach...I just downsized my smartphone. Yes, I'm aching a bit inside because I'm one of those tech nerds who likes gadgets. But, this was a long time coming. I switched to Sprint awhile back to get in on their much-advertised "Framily" plan with my parents and other relatives. Their network SUCKS...at least in my area, and I've hated every minute of it. So, I finally pulled the trigger today and dropped it. I went with a cheap unlimited talk/text plan, traded off my smartphone and went back to Verizon. Dug an old phone out of my toolbox and got on a simple prepaid unlimited talk/text plan that is about half of what I was paying. No contract, no BS. I'll miss having the world at my fingertips, but all I [I]really[/I] need is something simple. I have my tablet with me most of the time when I'm out, and with so much WiFi now, getting connected isn't really an issue. A penny saved is a penny earned, right? Now if I could just get out of this !@#$ing car payment. [/QUOTE]
