I prefer the pay-as-u-go style of cell phone access. I live in a very pots environment between work and home and don't need to use a cell a lot despite having a full blown family and career, not to mention I live close to where I work so the need to conduct life via a cell from my car is not necessary. Plus, I find it hard to justify the high costs and long term contracts of a regular carrier. I am thinking that my money can be better spent or saved elsewhere. You do save, right? Anyways... I may consider amp'd if it's available in the 12345 but it will be a longshot. I find Virgin to be great. I get nice, informative emails from them. Low yearly costs. They just easily handled a credit card expiration without issue, unlike other organziations. Plenty of coverage from urban, to suburban, ro rural locations. Afterall, it is the Sprint network. No roaming fees. No contract. It's easy. No monthly paper bill. It's pretty hassle free, which is what I want from my service. Sure the phones are pretty much basic but if I need data I prefer the big 17" screen instead of the 2" screen anyways, call me old skool, I can take it... :-)]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Earle]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:01AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Amp'd finally launches in US]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/16/ampd-finally-launches-in-us/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/16/ampd-finally-launches-in-us/</guid><description><![CDATA[I done reviewed it.

If you use it once, it was a dollar for the month.<br><br>And yes, unlimited data is $20/mo after the three month free trial.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jon Gales]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:01AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Amp'd finally launches in US]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/16/ampd-finally-launches-in-us/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/16/ampd-finally-launches-in-us/</guid><description><![CDATA[Ryan, you have this a bit wrong.

I have a T-Mobile phone and it's great.  I would never switch to Amp'd because it's just like *COUGH*Poser Mobile*COUGH*.  Who's network do they use?  You can easily tell if a company is a *COUGH*Poser Mobile*COUGH* if they use someone else's network for calls & data.  It doesn't convince me when a cell company doesn't have their own network.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[weirdlookinguy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:01AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Amp'd finally launches in US]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/16/ampd-finally-launches-in-us/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/12/16/ampd-finally-launches-in-us/</guid><description><![CDATA[So what the hell happend to it's prepaid plan???
