So I just had my Mother tell me about Cricket. Never even heard of it before. Looks like it's not such a bad deal. $30 for unlimited talk and text (basically nationwide). I thought these type of deals were only for regional providers. And they give the first month free right now, no contracts at all. Pretty crazy, just thought i'd share the info. I was tempted to leave, so I called ATT and they just worked with me to lower my bill by a bunch of $ and gave me 2800 free roll-over minutes. Yay!
Prepaid carriers like Cricket are really growing. I also think that this is where devices like BBs are really going to sell. The 8330 on Boost Mobile is one of the best deals out. Unlimited everything for $60 and no contract. They are supposed to be coming out with the 8530 sometime this year. The concept is great. The only thing about Cricket is that I don't think that their coverage are is that strong yet.
