With the holidays upon us, Dr. Z is in a tizzy with all those pricing promotions all over the place! What a way to gain freedom in communication with the help of Santa!
But Dr. Z would not want to tell you which car to get for the same reason he would not tell you which videophone to get.
Also, Dr. Z would not want to suggest one carrier (ATT, Sprint, Verizon or T Mobile) because coverage for each varies from place to place.
Also, there are many plans, voice plans, data plans, and so forth–you need to check carefully when you go out and buy one. Most, if not all plans have a 2-year contract. For some plans you may be able to upgrade from your Blackberry or Sidekick.
Dr. Z spent some time on his computer tonite to browse for bargains that are out there as of Monday night, December 20th–some bargains may expire overnight–some may continue the next few days.
But as a consumer advocate, Dr. Z is listing those bargains he found tonite–Good luck!
