Considering a new phone... - Page 2

You don't have a option to not allow your phone to sync with your mailbox?

I have that with mine so it only checks when I check. For me that's to save battery (and I don't get urgent e-mails to begin with that can wait for me to get to my desktop) but I'm guessing that will cut back on your data usage too.

Thanks guys.

I remember why it took me almost 5 years to change my phone - all this stuff is just going right over my head! LMAO! Will do a bit more research.. I kinda like HTC, I've got a few friends who have been using it.

I can't even keep my phone for that long cause something new and shiny pops up the next day.

If you've got friends with HTC, as them about their battery life, does it lag when they do stuff like play games...

It seems like a lot of people are having problems with internal memory.

When going through the Android market. A lot of the games cannot be played on HTC it seems... but they're still nice phones. :P

Oh really? I thought it's just the HTC that Kev chose xD

85$ a month with telus .. Y_Y
I get 1gb data, unlimited incoming, unlim txt, 200 outgoing min,
free after 6 free weekends .... BUT NO CALLER ID D:

^ That's the thing. Caller ID is always another 5-10 bucks depending on where you are.

I switched to WIND mobile and got their promotional plan which is 29/mo for a year with unlimited talk, text, and data with caller ID. After a year it's 45/mo but that's still half of what I used to pay at Bell.

The only catch is that when I go to visit my fiance in Surrey I don't have very good reception because their calling/reception/whatever radius is still quite small. And also no reception when I go underground transit or concrete building.
