Thanks for the tips and advice guys. I use Straight Talk which runs on Verizon networks. even the voice mail prompts say welcome to Verizon. So far I have only gotten 3G service but friends from Atlanta tell me they have 3G here but 4G at home, but they are on Verizon contracts. I havent been out of the area since switching but even at 3G it is quited adequate for the surfing I do.
As for you using it for a hotspot I was told when I bought it that no Verizon phones could be used as a hotspot any longer. Supposedly they downloaded a patch that disabled that function, but like you said, I can probably find a 10yo that can work around that. I was kinda counting on it when I made the leap. A couple of my favorite sites have apps that convert to mobile format. I really like that and hope to find more.
As for this site it works but is somewhat cumbersome. I have made several duplicate posts lately and yesterday in the Pleasure point thread I accidentally check the email notification button and since my email now goes to my phone I had to delete the post last night because it kept alerting and I couldn't get it to stop. I am sure I could have muted the phone, but I didn't need to do that for other reasons. So far I am shickled tickless with it though. It is $45/mo for unlimited, even cheaper if you buy 3,6,or 12 months at a time. Also from what I understand none of the "unlimited" plans are truly unlimited they just slow you way down after reaching a certain limit and the guy at Walmart said that is 4 gigs, which is a BUNCH. So far it has done everything that others can do with contract phones, well except for ATT/SPRINT, mine want drop calls...lol. I know others that are paying $90-100/mo and never complete a call without dropping it at least once. One in particular comes to mind. I want call names because he runs a CATHOUSe and discretion is important in that line of work....lol.
