    I ordered my new Droid and have to wait until the 15th for it to arrive so i firgured id use boost for 3 weeks until it shows up well that phone lasted about 2 days before flying out the window of my truck lmao

    Anyone still using Millenicom wireless??
    Wondering if it still has good signal in bad areas like in the country and stuff where i seem to be loading cars most of the time
    And is it still unlimited for like 50-60 bucks amonth?
    I also see they have a amp now for wireless I wonder how well that works for signal


    Thanks
    BTW RUN from boost!

    Boost is ok for certain areas.

    The best deal I have found on prepaid cellular is Straight Talk which is sold at Wally World. For $45/month you get unlimited talk/text/web. It works on the Verizon network so coverage is pretty good.

    I've been using it for several months now and have had no issues at all.

    If you are asking about the Wilson cellular amplifier, it does work quite well although I haven't found myself in need of one. I tested one a while back and it did boost the signal strength quite a lot. If you are frequently finding yourself in areas with very low cellular signal then it is worth the money IMHO.

    I just got the Straight Talk Samsung R355C with the full keyboard it looks like the expensive Blackberry but at $109.00 its a lot cheaper! I found out you should buy this unit on the Wall Mart web sight as if you buy it there instead of at the store they include a 1000 min. card free, This reduces the cost of the phone to $80.00. In the store you only get the phone and no min. I tried the web on it and although it was a little slow it worked well. It uses the Verizon network, I will buy the $45.00 unlimited everything for 30 days on my next due date. There are no connection fees or hidden charges at all. I checked the coverage area map and its GREAT! Some are paying $60.00-$70.00 a month for similar plans with 1-2 year contract. all and all I give this pre paid phone 4 out of 5 stars I would have given it a 5 if the internet was faster. I call my phone a "Wall berry" Here are other reviews-click on provided link here.http://www.google.com/search?q=Stra...&prmd=v&ei=u3lUTJQ3wbvyBqCxxf4C&start=10&sa=N All You needUnlimited
