[QUOTE="17MBPro, post: 1125233, member: 129245"] I live in Kansas City and talking with friends and family they have no complaints about their AT&T service, and I would say the same about Verizon. I don't travel for work or during free time so I can't say that not having 3G in certain places wouldn't be an issue for me. We do have wifi at the house and at both of our work places, so that can be used as a back up. Honestly, I pay around 85 (with a company discount) a month for my Verizon service now and all that includes is voice...no data or messaging, so I feel that I pay a lot for nothing. Currently it's just my wife and I on our plan since we have little kiddos, so 2GB a month would be plenty for us. I have looked at Verizon's line up of smart phones and the Droid X would be the one that interest me the most, but being a fan of Apples hardware it's hard to pass on an iPhone. However, that brings up another question of can an iPhone use a shared calendar, email, photos, etc without utilizing a .Me acct? I've read Android phones fully support Google products which allows all those features. I realize they each have their own pro's and con's and I would have to weigh those out personally. If I do decide to get an iPhone I'm defiantly leaning more toward the iPhone 4, since I could easily fill up 8gb quickly. Plus them more I think about the more I say if I'm going to spend that kind of money on phones.....what's another $100 for updated hardware. Do you really sit and watch YouTube videos on your phone? Maybe this sounds weird to me since all I have now is a piece of crap phone, and once something else is in my hand I will have a different opinion on that. Again, we don't even text now so this will be an eye opening experience from all side of the smart phone spectrum. Yes, we do get made fun of by our family and friends for not having these features on our wireless plan too. [/QUOTE]
