Having a phone call drop in the middle of a discussion with two, ill family members really did it for me.
So why switch? Although I have a land line and I don't use my cell phone voice plan that much anyway...you kind of want to get value for your money. Yeah?
After much soul-searching and reviewing online wireless service coverage maps, I finally decided to go for the switch. And a new cell phone handset, too.
I honestly got tired of waiting for Apple's whims of when they might or not release a new phone. Most other handset manufacturers keep their phone plans under wrap until they're ready to throw a big PR party for their newest release.
That's how you do it, you don't tease salivating fans until the very last drop of saliva is juiced out of them. Or their hard-earned money.
After today's announcement of Steve Jobs' resignation, and the absolutely preposterous rumors surrounding the release of the next iPhone, I couldn't be happier about my decision last weekend to at last bail ship.
My new phone service provider has excellent coverage for the area I live in. I get a signal. My new handset is a 4G. It's got a huge screen.
After all, it's highly unlike me to stick with one thing for too long a time. I get antsy.
Here's some useful links if you're also thinking of making a service or handset switch:
- CNET's cell phone coverage map, Verizon's, T-Mobile's, AT&T's, and Sprint's -- please bear in mind that many service providers say coverage and really mean voice service, not always data.
- Cell phone handset reviews by CNET, PC Magazine, and ZDNet.
