Don't have a cell phone and don't need one. I really have no use for one. I want less people to call me not more.

I don't have people call me...it's more texting than calling. My cell is very important to me, keeps all my numbers, music, I can look things up anywhere I'm at, comparison shop, and people can get in touch with me if it's an emergency.

It's handy to have when I'm out doing something and decide I want to go see a movie, but don't know what time it starts. I can quickly look up the showtimes.

T-Mobile charges a $200 early termination fee, which is low for the major carriers, and makes getting a brand new phone relatively cheap if you are willing to go that way and don't want their contract.

I have a contract with T-mobile, and actually thought of starting a new one for a few days just to get something like the Galaxy SIII fo far less than retail.

I have an HTC EVO at the moment and it is a decent phone for everything that I use it for. My biggest complaint is reception compared to an "old school" cell phone. I can't make calls from the center of my home while my wife's old cell phone works fine. It isn't that old so I haven't really considered what I would upgrade to.

Had an HTC Evo... just got my hands on the Galaxy SIII and so far it has been pretty awesome.

Enjoying my Droid Razr Maxx so far... still getting used to the touch screen. My pudgy fingers hit the wrong keys on the virtual keyboard pretty often...

LOL Jim...I had the same problem on the Droid 4. The S3 is very sensitive and you really have to make sure your fingers don't hover over a key otherwise it might select it...

One thing I will say about 4G is that the speeds are faster than my home internet! 12MB/s! WTF! I'm lucky if I get 2MB/s at home..... again... WTF!

My boss uses 4G for his home network...has five computers and a 360 attached through the router.

I also have a 4G cradlepoint router in my work lab for testing outside the network. Regularly have 6 - 8 systems attached and still get a good connection. Never really checked the speed under a load though...
