I need a new phone.

[Dattebayo]

AT&T does suck, my parents and brother have it, problems with the bills, crappy service etc. My dad has said once the contract is up they are going to verizon. I have had verizon for 4 years and never once did I have a problem, with the service or the actual company itself.

I've been through Connecticut and never had an issue before.

Just remember that when they switch, it will be better for like a year and then back to being worse once the special deal they get is over. All wireless companies are the same give or take different technology, really.

actually I have a smart phone and my bill has been pretty good thus far, and even before that when I had a regular flip phone, the bills for the 3 plus years never changed.

Also I have been witness to this every single day, my dad will have 2 or 3 voicemails come out of no where with out the phone even ringing, this has happened in all parts of connecticut, like I said just about every single day. With my dad owning a business it's extremely important that my dad hear the phone ring instead of getting these random out of nowhere voicemails. Yes his ringer is on.

[Dattebayo]

That has more to do with his phone then what network he is on, dummy.

[timay]

Oh ok, this happens with ALL the phones on the plan, they are all different. Dummy.

Bottom line is, I hear far more people b**** about at&t than I do about verizon, in fact, I don't ever think I have heard anyone have a problem with verizon. I'm sure they exist, no wireless company doesn't have its problems.

Man if I had a nickle for every time I heard someone say the only reason they have AT&T is because of the Iphone.

[Mr1der]

heh....down here, we b**** about spring and verizon?

[Bmore-coupe]

Just FYI, I know several people who have had problems with the iPhone dropping calls and not being able to hear people well. If you don't make a lot of actual phone calls, it probably wouldn't be a big deal. However, if you talk more than you text, it could be an issue.

Who uses a phone for talking anymore? Get with the times Bex.

[timay]

Like I said no provider is perfect, all of them someone has had to have had a problem with.

Also sprint gets b****ed about everywhere, so that's a common denominator.

[Mr1der]

true....

it's about like cable companies...it's all the same.

they provide a service and charge us too much

[AZ89two4Tsx]

James, get anything not Samsung.

The Iphone is great for normal everyday phone use, which seems like what you want. The music player is by far the best on the market, NONE can compare with it. It's thin too, and super easy to use. You won't be disappointed.

The only thing I didn't like about mine though was that the battery life plummeted after 1 year. Like, it would hardly last a day with normal use.

Here everyone b****es about Verison and everybody loves AT&T. Depends on your location.

I wound up getting another Sony Ericcson walkman...I had good luck with my w580..even though it now doesn't want the keys to function.

I haven't seen a cellphone that was durable since the old days of the Nokia bricks.

I got a w810i when they were new about 4 years ago. That thing is still in use and definitely tough as nails because we've beaten the snot out of it on multiple occasions.
