[Electronics-talk] Another Cell Phone Question

[Tracy Carcione]

I have a PagePlus data plan I bought at talkingmp3players.com.  It's
$29.95/month for 500G of data, as I recall.  $40 gets twice as much data,
but I've found 500 sufficient to my needs so far--listening to internet
radio, a little GPS, some other internet stuff.  I have wireless at home and
work, so that makes a big difference.
Anyway, PagePlus has reasonable pay-as-you-go plans, and the coverage is OK
in the major metropolitan area where I am.

Hi all! 
You might be able to get a prepaid data phone plan on an iPhone 5s. They are
cheaper than the 2 year data plans. They often come with limited data and
unlimited text and talking. You get only what you pay for. I think they are
best for people like you and I who don't make a lot of money. Yes, they are
also under rated in my book. Don't be afraid to ask around as you research.
You also aren't locked in to two years so if you change your mind, no
problem.
