    I'm going to get a tv so I can put my xbox on the truck. That way if I'm stuck somewhere waiting to get a load or at a shipper/consignee I can watch a movie/play games to pass the time if I don't want to sit on the net.

    Trust me, when you get out here and get stuck a long way from home in the middle of nowhere for 2-3 days you will realize you want those extras alot more.

    Yeh I thought about that too but i only play COD and the internet from a cell phone provider would carry too much lag and just piss me off. I take COD serious lol. Im an internet guy. Im on 3 forums right now actually. lol 2 others are MX forums. And im addicted to youtube. I can spend a whole day on youtube easy. There is just so much stuff I never get bored.

    Mellon, I suggest going with Sprint then, get a smart phone and tether it to laptop for internet. it's how I'm watching this blowout. (49-7 at end of first half) they're the only company who has true unlimited. Just watch your usage in roaming areas (not a big issue honestly).

    You forgot to add anymore. I have truly unlimited with verizon. I use 25-35 gb a month tethering to my laptop. Verizon might hate it, but I am grandfathered in!

    The wife and i have sprint.... And I must say... I dont have very many calls that DONT get lost. I was trying to hold a convo with a guy I know and in 30 mins the call was disconected atleast 8 times... Im getting rid of sprint as soon as possible. Ive had way bttr experience with verizon. Hell my wife and I can both have full 3g sitting still and drop the call. My phone also calls ppl on three way when i put it up to my left ear. And left ear only lol. Oh and also goes on speaker phone with the left ear. I know those are phone issues but this Evo 3d is not even 6 months old. Their service isnt the greatest. JMHO

    LMAO, that is weird as hell. I have the Evo 3d as well and no issues with it. My previous 3d was better signal, but even this 1 I have yet to drop a call except in areas where there was no signal for everyone (you run into some spots like that in the north midwest.

    Yeh well now that i think I have been in roaming during those calls, and when it goes from 3g to roaming the call drops. But it can go to 3g from roaming. Its weird. And I have had 2 bars and the intenet run good and then have full service and it run at a snails pace... lol but the 4g is good!

    the 4g is where I actually see their weakness. It's too unreliable when they could beef up their 3g for less cost. I have been in areas where 3g speed is in excess of 1.5 meg, and 4g (with full signal) was less than 1 meg.

    weird lmao
