Drop This...

So yesterday, after 8 years of dropped calls and mysterious charges, I finally dropped Sprint. My plan was essentially $50 for them to poop in my ear. I only got 350 minutes and like 300 texts. And that's it. I switched to AT&T for a plan that is $55 and I get 450 minutes with unlimited emailing and internet and 200 texts. It's not bad. Much better than Sprint. It's strange but it seems like all cell phone companies don't give a damn about current customers. They only seem to care about bringing new people in. I say this because Sprint goes out of their way to make sure if you already have a plan that you can't get one of their cool new ones. It's kind of counter intuitive if you ask me. Give people good service and they will stay with you. But it isn't just Sprint, it's everyone. It's a vicious cycle of people switching servers. I know people who hate AT&T, but I still switched. I guess the trick is to find the lesser of all of the evils. I would have gone with something else perhaps but I am saving up for an iPhone which is sadly only compatible with AT&T. Sad no more.



















My new phone is pretty cool. It's very trendy. I am usually behind on phones. I get good ones but I always seem to get them right before the next generation comes out. My last phone wasn't even bluetooth compatible All of my phones have been tanks though. I never go for the flimsy RAZRs or what have you. I buy the ones that only break if you load it into a bazooka and shoot it into some dynamite. But this time around I got a brand new one, the LG Shine. It's pretty fab. It has a slide up screen which I give less than a year before it breaks because it's too cool to last very long. It's got a pretty nice camera on it and you hold it like a regular digital cam. It also alerts me when I get new mail and I cn surf the web and it can play MP3s. It's pretty much a poor man's version of an iPhone. All in all, it's cool but I can tell that it's on the verge of breaking already.

Anyways, that's what I've been up to. That and kicking ass. Go big...

oh ps - I finally can also send and receive picture texts so if you got something funny, wend it my way. Sprint used to charge you 19 million yen for every kb you download.
