Re: Jailbreaking cell phones to become ILLEGAL at midnight As we know there are all walks of life but who is this law going to target the most.....not those that can afford to avoid it. A minimum fine of $2500 means those that can't afford to stick to a contract for a year or two will just be penalized further. Company's that can't recoup their losses shouldn't be sucking in on one hand and crying foul on the other. A more reasonable solution to providing access to a cell needs to be thought up and consumer rights to such should be offered not the other way around. -- Paradigm Shift beta test pilot.

Crappy 2 year old phones no one wants to choose from. No thanks... There's several GSM & CDMA MVNOs that allow you to "bring your own device", including brand new phones as long as they're not locked to another network & have a clean IMEI/MEID/ESN. Some may be limited to 3G, but not all. -- Government controlled healthcare? Name one thing government does efficiently and effectively! |

I could go buy a Galaxy and use it on prepaid, assuming I wanted a phone with no keyboard. -- Think Outside the Fox. |

 | I have done that. I bought a Nokia C6 - not sold in the US, and a Galaxy Apollo 3. Also not sold here. Worked right out of the box on TMO. I had a small data plan since both phones had wifi. |
