I am just going to throw in my two cents on this conversation, for whatever
it's worth....
I have, at various times in my life, used Verizon, straight Talk, and
Sprint.  
In my experience- Straight Talk is a great option.  It worked very well for
me, the reception was great, the phone was reliable, the company was
reliable and the prices were great.  It's a great option if you don't have
good credit, as there is no contract so no deposit or anything.  You get
unlimited talk and text and a good amount of data that ends up coming out to
around $50.  They also have cheaper plans, if you are not going to use
you're phone that much. 
The only problem I ever encountered was when I needed to get a detailed bill
for some legal matters.  I called customer service and asked them for this,
as they do not send out bills, since it is pre-paid or pay-as-you-go.  They
said they had to have documentation sent to them from a government official
or lawyer saying that I had to have the detailed statement for my phone
number.
That's the only issue, which is a rare occurrence, but if you like to have
the detailed bill, you won't with Straight talk.  
Verizon was also great.  They had the best selection of phones, the best
customer service, and the best reception of any of these three companies.
However, they are by far, in my experience, the most expensive.  Sometimes
they have promotions on their phones or things like that.  But you have to
be aware of what you're monthly plan will cost, insurance, and any extra
billing features.  
Sprint, which I have now, is good.  But I am on a family plan though.  My
portion of the bill is only $60 for unlimited everything... Including data
with my iphone.  I still have my iphone 4, that i have had for a couple
years.  I believe it was $99 with a two year contract at the time.  I have
no problems with Sprint, the reception is not what it was with verizon, but
it is definitely not bad at all.  
So anyway, these are just my experiences.
