Switching Cellphone Companies

[ghostfaced]

sorry for kinda necro bumping this.... but uh i had a few questions...

i currently have cingular and i personally dont like them at all... cant really explain why and maybe its just the phones ive had but i cant stand them and i want something different... i was wondering how the ocean is as a actual phone like calling and stuff..... my mom has a treo right now and sometimes i cant ever hear her and past sidekicks that i have messed with have sucked ass as well so i was just wondering how it acts as a phone....

second question my plan doesnt end until like july and i honestly dont really feel like waiting until then to get a new phone/plan.... do you think the helio/ocean would be worth paying the 175 charge ill get if i end it early?

Does having a cell phone on AT&T's network impact your life to the point where it's detrimental to continue receiving service from them?

OR

Will you save so much money by making the switch that the total cost of the Helio service over the remaining contract duration plus the $175 penalty will be identical or less than the cost of continuing to receive service from AT&T?

If so, yeah, it might be worth it. Otherwise, you're wasting your money.

i will probably be either about the same or saving a little bit of money i pay about 80 bucks a month for stupid amount of mins (450/5000weekend) and unlimited amount of texts... helios was like 85 for 1000 anytime and unlimited weekend and texting and url browsing stuff.... soo iono..
