Re: It's not the phone, it's the data plan said by R4M0N:The only think keeping me from getting a "smart phone" is the value of the data plans out there. I'm not about to shell out that much money monthly for some seriously limited internet access that I can't even opt out of. If I wasn't forced to bundle a data plan, I would have gotten a smart phone a long time ago so I could use it with wi-fi and not wireless broadband. What are you wanting to do with a smartphone without it's "smart" capabilities?
Sounds like you just want a dumbphone.

kudos:1 | There are a whole lot of "smart" capabilities that don't require a data plan to use, and the ones that do require an external connection can still be used over Wi-Fi networks. |

Then it sounds like you want an iPod Touch with Skype... Sounds like you're just arguing for the sake of arguing... Considering you completely ignored the sentence where I said I would like to use its smart capabilities over wi-fi, not wireless broadband.
BT nailed it on the head. I want a cell phone where I can choose to use its smart capabilities over wi-fi and not have to be raped by a data plan.
An "ipod touch with skype" doesn't even come close to being a cellphone. |
