omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Gaming chairs are low sitting chairs that are glorified pillows on the floor with a back rest. You can get them at Target: [link]

You can get them at Best Buy, and Amazon too.

2-person family plan that gets 1000 shared minutes and 2GB of shared 4G data for $69.98 a month

That is pretty tempting. We pay twice that on AT&T (for 4GB data and unlimited talk & text, but still).

Hey. New board.

Yep. And the $70/month savings would pay for two iPhones in about 13 months, so you get the other 11 months savings as pure profit.

Unfortunately, though iPhones work on T-Mobile just fine at 3G speeds, there's no LTE. I'm pretty sure they can use the T-Mobile HSPA+ frequencies, but even that might not be true. So you are losing something.

We don't have 4G now - we both have iPhone 4 (not 4s). (And I've already decided that I'm bored with iOS and my next phone will be Android.)

Gris,

I cannot give up my LTE though. They need to pry that from my cold, dead hands.

Hey. New board.

(shrug) Fair enough. If you're using AT&T, though, there's plenty of evidence that T-Mobile's HSPA+ 4g speeds are comparable to AT&T's LTE 4g speeds

Verizon's LTE is consistently faster in much of the country, but T-Mobile's HSPA+ network beat even it in some areas.. How you get the best speed seems to have more to do with your location and phone than your carrier.

yes, I am now on Verizon. It was worth it to us (painful for the termination fee) to move to Verizon.

Google maps is rumored to be released on iOS this eve

Ooh, I would be super excited about that!! I use maps a lot, and while the navigation part has been good, the rest of the new maps sucks.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I am looking forward to hearing how the Google maps work. I've put off my upgrade.
