#$@%$#!! Cell phones!!!!

[BigBo]

OK, here's a rant on sort of the same subject...............
Why in hell, do these things cost so much to replace if you don't buy them with a contract? They're all pieces of chit cheapo electronics with half rate technology that I know they can offer better service for less money. There's no excuse for provided service that works fine one minute then cuts out the next. Where would other tech based industries be if they offered service like this?
Why in hell do you need a contract? I don't have a contract for my landline phone. Hey, here's an idea.............if someone doesn't pay their bill...........shut it off!!!!!!!!!!

There's a lot more, but I'm tired.

I keep a cell phone for emergencies only and rarely ever use it. So I went with tracphone and have been with them for a year and a half, phone cost me $39.99, it cost me about $150.00 per year, no contract and mine is the only phone on the boat that still has a signal 10 miles out to sea. I'm happy
