I guess having 5 people with cell phones will be a good part of that, like $250...

I guess I will just have to sleep on what I should do. I would stay in touch via 3G but for some reason it goes crazy when I got to check the threads. I may have to change back to an iPhone and see what that will cost me.

For me, I can use my cell phone as a hotspot, as long as I have 3/4G coverage.....I use it to allow my laptop to connect and surf via WiFi. I also called T-mobile and got a cell phone signal booster for the house...full service 24/7...

As far as my project for the day, have to change the oil, then done....it sounds great too....

Not sure what service (guessing AT&T), I have an Android phone, and that is one of the options it has on it...works great...majority of the time I answer the Forums from my phone, Photobucket, etc, all on the phone...

I personally really like the look of the tires and rims...hate that I am getting rid of it...but my buddy really wanted it, and I couldn't disappoint him...

Good evening guys,

Doing good Pat. How about you?

This cell phone booster has me intrigued. I have T-mobile and I get crap for service in my own home, but good everywhere else. Will a booster remedy this problem. I feel like i'm in a tiny dead spot, but walk 15ft away from my front door and I get a full signal.

Oh yeah it will...you have to get the right CS Rep...for the most part, you have to call CS, let them do some troubleshooting on your phone, to confirm your signal strength, etc...for the most part you have to let them know that you have ZERO reception, and the service your paying for, you actually aren't getting...

Some requirements
1. You must have at least 1 bar of 3/4G coverage
2. You must have a land line (for the purpose of 911 stuff)
3. I think that is about all of it...

Let me know how it goes...

Good early morning Alabama. Another long night at work on the business end of a blower.
