Soul Sojourner:
They all blow shit.

I hate cell phones.

But, yeah... exactly what you said, Throbble. *sigh* I'll have to get one too eventually. (fucking shit)

My girlfriend uses verizon, in her area, they've been a pain in the fucking ass to deal with, but they put up a new tower and although it's better, they are still a fucking pain.

It's exactly as Mo says it is, it depends on your area, truthfully. Customer service I wouldn't know a goddamn thing about, but perhaps it too depends on the area, where you get the phone, that shit.

Anyway, this post is just here mostly to agree with you on the not wanting a cell phone thing, but realization of the necessity, and also to back up Mo's statement about it depending on where you live. Good luck.

customer service = call number and wind up talking to some guy you can barely understand who's actually in India or someplace.

cuchulann:
I've got cingular and I have not had a single real problem. Even out off County road G miles outside of eagle River Wisconsin, i had a good signal. Once in a few months I have to turn it off to reboot the phone, but it is the smallest no frills freebee that they had. This could be why i've had veryfew problems as there is not much that can go wrong with it.

Throbblefoot:
Thanks for all your input! I've been looking around art local reviews of cell service, and I think I'm going to go with Cingular.....

Im not sure if you have the same system in the USA, but over here we can have pre-pay mobiles.

You wouldnt be fixed to a contract, wouldnt have to pay a monthly subscription fee, only pay for the calls you make, and recieve calls for free.

You could pick up a cheap (store, ebay, etc) / free (friends, family, dustbin, etc) mobile anywhere, and spend around �£5 for a sim-card that generally comes with �£5 of calling credit.

If you dont envisage using it for hours a day for outbound calls and dont need the shiniest new mobile (you have managed to survive thus far) then I think its definitely the way to go.

As for which service provider, just check the coverage of the areas you frequent.
