I also use sprint.  I also get flakey coverage in my house, everywhere
else is great, most of the time.  I love my f0ne (samsung 4900), and the
service plan is great.  I have two phones with 2000 minutes and
unlimited PCS.  Of course I get the long distance and fone to fone
calling and such as well.  I pay about $100 for this plan.  I completely
removed qworst from my house (great decision!).  The unlimited PCS just
rocks.  It is not the best Internet connection in the world, but it
works, and it works _anywhere_ (almost).  Plus, they have a builtin
'discount' feature on the handsets. *2 --->> wait for clair to answer
(you say) "dropped call credit" (she says) "Allright, credit for a
dropped call".  Of course you only use this if you really get a dropped
call ;) ($0.50 per call, max of 20 a month)
