cingular charges $2.99 for 100 outgoing messages.

meaning, u can receive 83750138750138571039875831905731085 messages and send 100 messages.

voicestream's 500 messages for $2.99.

can't this be 1 outgoing and 499 incoming?
voicestream charges 1 txt message for AIM's instant message received, and 1 for any messages sent. and again, cingular doesnt.

voicestream offers 1000 anytime minutes [ promotional ] ain't $39.99 only has 500 anytime minutes in CHICAGO? cingular has 600 for $39.99

rj:

The reason I stated b4 that more anytime minutes is better than less anytime+unlimited nights is because 350 minutes is hardly enough for most people for a complete month. I know I use up more than that even b4 i reach the middle of my billing cycle. A lot of times my friends on campus using Cingular beg me to let let them use my phone coz they ran out of their 350 minutes even b4 the month is over and they need to make 'daytime' calls.

The truth of the matter is that if you have to make a call NOW.. then you have to make it now... not wait till 9pm or whatever to make the call. Coz the world doesnt wait for your nightime minutes. Unless ofcourse you like paying over-usage fees.

i guess it's the same as my situation with my friends from the eastcoast / hawaii
they have to use their parents' SPRINT phones just because they don't have night minutes.

be aware and don't be SINGLE-SIDED. you see, not ALL important phone calls happen in the day time. so ...

and yeah, it depends on the phone user too. for me, night time is the most important time of the day. peace

rj, what if you have friends in NY or Chicago and you gotta wait for your night minutes at 9pm, all your friends will be sleeping by then

nah, i got 1000++ minutes on mah plan, unlimited mobile to mobile, unlimited NIGHTS and weekends, free LD, FREE roaming. etc etc. =]

i don't care how much minutes these 2 companies offer, i took advantage of the offers before, im happy! LOL.

my advise is this:

if you think it's the right time to get a new phone with a new contract, do it! u never know maybe next month, another set of plans are to replace 'em.

PS: keep on talkin about this companies aiite? LOL
