My RAZR is nearly dead. The screen constantly goes blank. It's long passed the warranty.
I need a new phone.
However, my wife and I share a contract, which we can't get out of. I just want to get a new phone, add it to the present contract and be done with it. Moreover, my wife will probably need a new phone, and she's the one in the family that can really use a discount because she uses a smart phone. So we'd obviously rather not update our contract until she needs a new phone. We want the option to switch carriers when she gets a new phone.
Of course, our carrier doesn't provide any inexpensive phones unless you get a two year contract, <rant>because every single cell phone carrier is guilty of illegal pricing strategies that no one in our governement is trying to stop.</rant> I need to text messaging and calling with my phone, nothing else.
Is there any way to get a cheap phone for me while leaving our option to get a nice phone for her when our contract expires in a few months?
