The only reason I got them to begin with was Joe has them through work so I wanted the Direct Connect, which you can only get through them, so I could talk to Joe easily without using up minutes. But now we&#8217;ve decided to just find a &#8220;family plan&#8221; that has two phones and a decent amount of minutes so we won&#8217;t have to deal with Nextel anymore. Well, he does for work still, but I won&#8217;t. *Does the happy dance*<\/p>\n<p>So &#8230; we have narrowed it down to T-Mobile and AT&#038;T Wireless. Does anyone have experience with either one of these carriers? I&#8217;m especially interested about those in the Chicagoland area, but if you&#8217;re not, I&#8217;d still like to know what you think. <\/p>\n<p>Oh, and please don&#8217;t recommend another carrier because it&#8217;s a pet peeve of mine when someone asks on their blog, &#8220;of these choices, which one do you like?&#8221; and a person responds and goes on and on about something that wasn&#8217;t one of the choices. It just irks me, so don&#8217;t do it. I don&#8217;t want to hear about Verizon (prices too high) or US Cellular who suspiciously talks only about their &#8220;award winning customer service&#8221; and little else, probably because their coverage blows. Oh, and no Sprint PCS either. That goes for Cingular and PrimeCo (if they still exist) too. Ok, did I cover them all so that no one aggravates me? :)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wow, it sure seems like I have a lot to say today, huh?
