I'm very happy with my phone, and have desire to be locked into a contract or pay overage fees, or spend 2 years paying off a flashy phone I got for "free".
My daughter has a Virgin Mobile phone with unlimited talk, texting and web. I pay $42.10/month, with tax. What plan are you on that costs so much?

I've had Boost for years and love it. With their shrinkage deal I'm down to $40/month for unlimited talk/text/web... I'm not sure if they throttle after a certain point and don't really care enough to look since I don't surf the web munch on my phone. Mostly I just check email occasionally or look up the odd phone number/address for a business while I'm out and about.
Like Virgin, they run on Sprint's network and get some of the older Sprint handsets. I've got a Transform Ultra, because I'm a dinosaur who wanted a physical keyboard. It's also pretty sturdy. I've lost count of the times I've dropped it and it's still going strong.

I have a nice smartphone (android) from Virgin Mobile and am on the $35 month plan. Only 300 voice minutes, but unlimited texts and data. I've been happy with it.

I brought my phone from Europe, and I am on a $60 prepaid plan from t mobile. Unlimited texts and minutes and enough data traffic to use Skype, check emails and browse Internet occasionally. I have an android smartphone.

How much do you pay per month? I want to get an android phone but don't want to lock into a 2 yr contract. Will probably use it for the basics.....a few apps, checking e-mail and taking pictures.
