Mar 12th 2008 12:21PM If I am not mistaken I do believe Alltel and Sprint share towers.
So you might be able to go with Alltel even though they don't offer service where you are.

I realize you said "Cool" phones... (and the Razr doesn't go into that class) but hey... its the thought that counts right?

T-Mobile preps for My Faves launch {Engadget Mobile}
Oct 1st 2006 10:33PM "For the lowest cost plan with both M2M AND My Faves/My Circle"
That plan is $59.99 but it does not include M2M According to the link provided by Engadget, which is what I based the T-mobile section of my comment on.
To add M2M you would add $10
T-Mobile preps for My Faves launch {Engadget Mobile}
Sep 30th 2006 11:09AM I might just be an Alltel fanboy.. But comparing the offerings between Alltel and T-mobile, my opinion is that Alltel has the better deal.
For the lowest cost plan with both M2M and My Faves/My Circle
T-mobile's lowest priced plan is $49.99 for 300 Anytime mins, unlimited N/W, unlimited M2M and 5 "My Faves" numbers
Alltel's lowest priced plan that includes "My Circle" is $59.99 and includes 900 Anytime mins, unlimited M2M, Unlimited N/W, and 10 "My Circle" numbers.
You are obviously going to have more people you can call with Unlimited M2M with T-mobile, as they have more customers.
Neither carrier will allow you to use 800, 900 and international numbers to the My Faves/Circle lists.
I may be wrong, but from what I read about T-mobile's offer you can change the My Faves once a month.
With Alltel, you can change My Circle at any time, and the Changes will occur the next day (12:01am to be exact).
On Family plans T-mobile "My Faves" give you 5 numbers for each line, Alltel's "My Circle" gives you 10 numbers across the board, all 10 numbers apply to each line and can be changed using the Alltel website.
That is my comparisan, using these sites to determine the offers.

It is encouraging to see that T-mobile is trying this out, I use Alltel and have My Circle, it is very useful and I enjoy this feature.
