Re: So what would you do in my position?

worst comes to worst.. they would just catch it and say
"HEY... tsktsk"
My moms got a sero 500 plan just like me and recently bought a "smartphone"
Its a motorola titanium. Its not been out but like 3 or 4 months I think but its still running android 2.1

Its a direct connect phone so it will never be upgraded past android 2.1 because froyo cant connect to the prouper signals (from what I read) to use the walkie talkie feature.

That being said, it wanst fully activated because the sprint people couldnt access her sero account, in a corpret store mind you, so its not fully functional.
But the only thing that doesnt work is texting because her texts are being sent the the "active" phone according to sprints site.

She came from a moto i780, and since they are all sim activated she just swapped her sim like befor and the phone activated.
But on sprints end it still shows the i780. And because it is a "smartphone" they didnt activate it because they cant athorize the change in the system to make her account a sero premium.

So she said she will save 10 bucks off a bill and sacrifce texting lol
she can call, browse the web, dc anyone, send and recieve emails so shes content with that.

The rep I spoke with on the phone told us that if we can live with out her being able to text then she recomended us just leaving it that way and not to worry about it.

So I spoke to people in sprint about the fact that we wernt paying the additional 10 bucks for the smartphone fee and they pretty much said power to you
