Well, I simply won't sign a contract. Honestly, if you knew my life...you would wonder why I even need a cell phone.
And except for one week of the year, I don't. Honestly, I don't.
My other biggest problem is the coverage of the area I go to in Ohio each year. I've heard that Virgin Mobile's coverage outside of your local area is spotty. Cingular's Go Phone doesn't require a contract, just my credit card number so they can charge the same amount as if I had a contract. Still too much $/month for me.
I've heard a lot of mixed reviews of TracPhone (which uses Verizon's network, I think, which is a good network overall), but I think I'm leaning toward them. I can get a decent little phone at Sam's Club for $40 or so, and put on 40 minutes or less every 3 months. If I use it more, I can add more.
