NewB Question..
 

I'm thinkin about purchasing a ppc from a private company (Cellular South). Will the hacks/tricks described in this forum work with it?

I know you're wondering why don't i go to a big company like Sprint. Well, quite frankly... i'm 17 years old and 60 bucks a month for unlimited minutes/web/txt & pic messaging sounds real good to me. :lol:

How much they gonna let u get the phone for? And yes most of the hacks and all of the programs listed here will work on the cellular south branded ppc-6700. Unlimited mins for 60? hummm I got 500, n&ws @7, unlimited pic/video, free internet, free roaming, plus a 10% discount all for 42 bux, not bad from sprint.

It costs $250, but i know a guy who knows a guy :roll: ... so i get a $100 discount.

wow not bad. Cellular south doesnt have EV-DO service tho do they?

Nah, that's unfortunately the downside to it all. But this is just a temporary solution until i go off to Auburn (football scholarship) so i think i can live with it.

I hear ya. ;)

Wait a min. Is 1x Ev-do the same kind of service that sprint has? All this Cdma, Tdma, Evdo stuff has me confused sometimes.

The last time i talked to the cellular south rep they said that 1x Ev-Do will be available down here within the next year. I don't know if that's the same thing as sprint's evdo or what?

Whatever it is, i can CERTAINLY say that's its faster than Nextel's network (the carrier i'm with now)

1x is lower than evdo, Im on 1x cuz we dont have evdo service available where I live. Its not bad but like 110kb/s (sometimes higher sometimes lower) or so.

Isn't Sprint and Nextel the same thing where you live? In Seattle that is their huge thing up here. "Sprint together with Nextel"..... That's what all the commercials say, and you can buy either at the sprint stores.

yea they combined awhile back.
