On the flip side however, my boyfriend has had Sprint for years and they want to charge him $300 to UPGRADE to the same phone I only paid $29.99 for. I should note he has never done an actual upgrade but changed his phone twice. His phone also gets no bars when he's standing right in front of the Sprint store! Go figure! While in the long run he would save more than I will I think that kind of pricing is ridiculous and I'll stick with the higher price and better customer service at VZW.

i agree i love sprint and there cheap plan i was with them for years. my only concern with them was the lack of coverage in my area. it was funny my friends would get bars and evdo with their phones (mogul, tp) while i get 1 bar and choppy evdo (pre). my gf has vz and she had signal and 3g everywhere so i made the trial jump and its great. i dont mind the price i pay 10 bucks extra minus the unlimited text and gps but i dont use gps anymore since i got my garmin

i went with a individual plan. 450 minutes unlimited data and 500 text. rite now im paying 79.99 before taxes and stuff ill see on my first bill.

Re: Touch Pro 2

to the pricing discussion....i think it's to each is his own. different people, different opinions. and of course, quality of service depends on where you are geographically. because both sides of the fence have dead spots. all carriers actually have dead spots. and for pricing...i guess it's the individual's preference on whether to pay extra for a device and save on the monthly, or save on the device and have a bit higher monthly compared to the closest competition.

and on to the topic at hand...OP, the best ever advice that's been given is read up! and after you've read as much as you can....read some more! once you get used to the tp2...everything else is a lot easier. you can do just about anything with this device. have fun!

oh and let me know if you manage to make your device do your laundry. been trying to get mine to do it...but no success wonder if there's a cab for that?
