Your Alltel phone should work just fine with Verizon's network.


As for no Palms, Verizon will be dropping the Palm Pre before too long

Yea, it's sort of complicated. I have a company phone and there was something about having to have them upgraded. My phone is supposed to work until I activate the new one... and I guess I could just never activate it? Just a bummer, I'm a loyal palmer.

What do you expect.. Crazy Aussies...............

Walt, I suppose you could wait it out if you're THAT attached to your treo. Verizon is notorious for delaying phone releases but they should be close to dropping the Pre (I'd wait it out if at all possible because the Pre has received some great reviews).

How can you not have a cell phone? But, honestly props to you. :wizard:

It's not that my cell phone is life or death, but when I forget it at home or in the office even for a few mins to grab lunch or something, I'll be like :banghead: .

We become so attached to these things that it controls our lives in a way.

Short version is is that if the people I know, love and trust need to find me, they can find me. Don't need a cell phone to do it. I'm not overly complicated. Peeps can find me.

This would lead me into the long version.................

^Makes sense. But, do you not feel that you may run into an emergency or something one day and need one? Or, do you have one of those pre-paid phones that you keep for 911 etc?

godric is a badass. would have loved to see him unleash on that cult.

i hope they make him part of the show, but me thinks he dies in the silver bomb.

maryanne is annoying. that whole plot line is lame. more vampires less maenads.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maenad

so now we have vampires, telepaths, shape-shifters and maenads... what mythical creature will they introduce next?

I had no idea you could get your username changed! The year rule is some bull, though.
Humble yourself.
