Only went over my limit once. 250 weekday/5000 night,weekend minutes, national long distance for $36 (tax & fees included) every month.

I often wonder about those people you see sitting/walking/driving/eating with those things glued to their ears.

my main problem was and soon will be again that i travel quite alot, and i got alot of friends that drive too, that and i got the hands free kit installed in my semi. so it makes it so easy to just drive and chat, my friend roger and i have driven in different directions yapping on for an hour about this and that. Usually the only reason we quit talking is that his battery is going dead lol. when i go back on the road full time next month i going to upgrade to a national account that is unlimited minutes. that way i can hook the lap top up to a cell modem so i wont fall behind on my post count here. that runs about 190 bucks a month i hear. so start sending your dollars now lol

Hey, I have a great idea ! Lets all exchange cell phone numbers, so we can spend MORE money !!

Just kidding, although it would be cool to talk to some of you guys while "on the road".

I have 2 Treo 600's on Cingular. My basic is $88.00 per month each and my GPRS bucket is another $40.00 each, per month. It doesn't take much to go over either.
