ATT GoPhone.
You can choose your plan. (see https://www.paygonline.com/websc/rat...ateplan_en.jsp)

I like it a lot, very flexible, and the 100 MB data for $20 should cover a month of emails and casual browsing. If you go over the 100mb, you could always buy more...

I found their coverage was stronger than TMobile's in my area.

This review might offer some help on the data portion.

Re: post what you know to be a the best gsm prepaid plan
 

Do you plan to use this on the unlock Sprint TP2?

I thought the best data speed you can get on it would be Edge speed, not even 3g?

Re: post what you know to be a the best gsm prepaid plan
 

yeah att just went to 60 a month. I also heard of t-mobile at 50 a month. But i havnt confirmed that.

Re: post what you know to be a the best gsm prepaid plan
 

Nice thread, i'm looking for something similar, without data. More like an "emergency" sim card that will work if I never need it, for like $5 a month or something.

Same here

Re: post what you know to be a the best gsm prepaid plan
 

Im looking for this exactly, though id rather there be no monthly fee, just a sim card that doesnt expire. Does an expired SIM card have to allow for 911 calls to be made? I know landline phone companies are required to provide 911 service even if the subscriber has cancelled thier plan. Is this also true with GSM networks?

Honestly, I would be willing to pay like 20-25 cents per minute maybe more for a card of minutes that didnt expire. I think someone said AT&T has a prepaid plan where you can buy a $100 card and it wont expire for a year, which might be our best option, that works out to:
$8.33 per month...

AT&T

They do have this one guys. Don't know if it will expire if you don't use it...... http://www.myworldphone.com/itemdesc...SIM-PREP-AT100

Since I only use my SIM card whenever Verizon has no signal, this is what I use and it seems fairly cheap. I bought mine at a Best Buy:

Correct, you will only ever get edge and not 3g which makes using the sim for data pretty discouraging. The SIM-for-emergency calling is pretty moot if you live in a metro area like me. If Sprint has no service, I end up roaming to the Big V. I have yet to ever experience true "No service". Maybe on the subway, but I haven't taken that since it cost $1.50 (NYC people know how long ago that was, lol).

I want to unlock the feature primarily to consolidate phones. I have second line for work that uses T-Mobile. Not having to carry around 2 phones would be great. I realize that you can't be on both gsm and cdma simultaneously, but since I have my personal phone turned off during the day anyway it wouldn't make a diff to me. Swap to gsm when the workday starts and swap back to cdma at quitting time. One phone, two birds. useewutididthere? =P

$16 to ship it though.
Thats nutz.

Re: post what you know to be a the best gsm prepaid plan
 

Wow didn't see the shipping lol. $28 for this one and looks pretty decent http://www.telestial.com/view_product.php?ID=LSIM-US04

Re: post what you know to be a the best gsm prepaid plan
 

I ended up buying this one. It claims to give access to both Tmobile and AT&T towers...rates are decent for very seldom use. The minutes expire in 9 months if you dont:
a.) Use some minutes or send a text
b.) Recharge your minutes

From what I could tell doing one of those two things resets the 9 month counter...that means this $19 SIM could last $19.00/0.15 * 9 months if you send a text message every 9 months, this card would last 95 years!

Also, use coupon code frommers01 for 15% off which is $2.18 on a $19 card. My total after shipping was $25.15
