That Lotus is a sweet design, but I'd get tired of having to unfold it every time I wanted to send or read a message. It's biggest advantage is the aesthetic, but nothing beats the look of a BlackBerry, in my opinion.
You should look into Verizon. Great coverage, incredible customer service. Just a suggestion. Good luck to you!
I went from the pearl to the lotus for about 3 months... Then I got the curve. The lotus was nice and simple when I had a broken shoulder, but it sure didn't compare to my BB! Best of luck to you!!
I just switched to Tmobile I used to have them before too, I think their great LOL I left Att ugh waayyy to many dropped calls I never had a problem with tmobile, that being said, good luck, lotus is cute.
