$200 with a contract? you have SERO?

 

[eits]

$200 sans contract... it was $200 from a private seller on craigslist. new in box.

i had sero on my centro... i had to change it in order to use the instinct. you have to use the "everything's included" plan.

for $69.99/mo, you get 450 anytime minutes, free nights and weekends, free calling from 7pm, mobile to mobile, free internet, free wireless tv, etc... i was like "fuck that... i have 1250 anytime minutes with my sero plan"... the guy said that he'd give me the $69.99 plan with an additional 550 minutes if i went with it. so, i did.

You HAD to change your plan? Why is that? That doesn't make sense.

 

[BlackTigers]

I saw that commercial and immediately walked to the PC to see how much the thing cost. And I was quickly disappointed =/.

 

[Scouzer]

I can't decide between the LG Glimmer, the Razr V9M or the Instinct for Bell Mobility here in Canada... thoughts?

that sounds expensive but it pretty much aligns with the 1000-minute SERO plan.

how do you like the centro? i plan to flip it for a mogul.

seems to be it goes for ~$300 here in NYC CL. good deal! does the instinct do PAM?

because of the capabilities or something... the phone doesn't work on any other plan because of the way the data's transferred or something... i can't exactly remember

what? why?

$130 with a 2 year contract is amazing for this phone (if you don't already have sprint). it's a better phone than the iphone and it's cheaper.

the centro's awesome if you need a pda and a phone in one.

what's pam? picture attached mail? if so, yes. iphone doesn't.

Well the $130 wouldn't be bad, but I was hoping to get in on that Sero deal, and I saw that I needed like $99/mo (as opposed to $30 for the other phones).

Good stuff for not getting an iPhone :thumbsup:

Well the $130 wouldn't be bad, but I was hoping to get in on that Sero deal, and I saw that I needed like $65/mo (as opposed to $30 for the other phones).

New SERO plans come out tomorrow (I think), that are rumored to be compatible with the Instinct.

Eits hows the reception on this? I've been thinking about getting it since the phone came out...

 

[Pollock]

So, what do you think of it vs the Centro? I got in on a $30 SERO plan, and mine should get here Monday. I'm not sure how it'd fare against something like the Dare/Instinct (another option of mine).

what's pam? picture attached mail? if so, yes. iphone doesn't.

PAM = phone as modem, as in using the phone's connection for your computer (tethering).

with the SERO and a number of phones, you get free broadband, unlimited text, free GPS and 500 minutes for $30/month

$69.99 is the cheapest, but they will try and hook you up so you will stay with the instinct

reception's about the same as normal... maybe a bar better.

if new sero plans come out tomorrow, i'm calling up and getting back on it.
