how to track minutes?
 

Does anyone know of a way or a program which will track used minutes during the month? My previous sprint phones had that feature built in but I don't see anyway to do it on my new Mogul 6800.

Perhaps there's a software program out there?

Thanks.

PS: went over my monthly allotment quite a bit last month and at 40 cents a minute, it really adds up!

Keep an eye on it with your Sprint.com account.

I think PhoneAlarm has this feature. Their User guide states
"Billing
Billing information can be configured so that phoneAlarm can provide you with a close estimate of your actual monthly phone/data costs.
Included are over 25 settings to customize the charges according to your provider tariff. With each update, more options will be added to support more accurate billing calculation – let us know if a critical setting is missing for your provider!

Tracking Tab
This includes the 1st day of your billing period, the Time periods that should be considered “Peak” time (only necessary if you have a Peak/Off peak tariff), and the charging unit (how your provider charges for short calls!). Set “1/1” if you don’t have any details (this means you are billed only for the exact seconds connected). “30/30” for example means you pay for each started 30 second block.
