Low cost price plan.

Verizon offers a $34.99 plan that they don't advertise. Is there a low cost price plan for sprint that they don't advertise. If not, what would be the lowest price plan that I could get. I use 200 minutes or less a month if that helps?

To busy posting on cellphoner.net I guess! :D
Just Kidding, I have never been a big talker unless someone in the family gets sick and is in the hospital or something then I find that I need to use the phone more often. :(

yeah its not a bad a bad plan for those who do not live on a phone and you are not locked into a contract so you buy a phone off ebay and and walk into sprint and pay 30 a month with out a contract sounds pretty sweet to me

The only problem that I see buying a phone on eBay first is if I get it activated and Sprints coverage isn't that good. Then I've got a paper weight VS a phone that I could have bought at the store and just returned it if the service wasn't good.

Is there map typically conservative. T-mobile has a coverage map that is usually very conservative, it says I should only have 3 bars in my house yet I get full service.

Is the Sprint map pretty true to form?

yeah from what i can tell i have no trouble doing anything with my phone if i have one bar. bars don't mean that much on the CDMA network if you can dial you can use GPS, text, call, browse wap, anything the phone can do you can do it with one bar.
but the maps seems pretty close

I live in PA, and when I entered my zip code on their web site it comes up as dark green which I should be covered well by their network. "But" verizon's map shows my area as having great coverage as well but yet when I get home my phones with them couldn't even get a signal. My other concern with Sprint is their poor reputation. I would feel a lot better about the network if it was rated a little higher. Thats my biggest reason for wanting a no contract option. No ETF if I stop liking their service.

well with any sprint plan you get a 30 no risk trial you could try that i know that some states sprint doesn't work as well as other carriers but you have to make that call on your own by trying them i say give it a shot and go for it all you will have to do to cancel is pay the min used.
