>> >> things in the notepad area, calculator, set ringtones easily and

>> >> have the gusto III with verizon as a prepaid which at Walmart costs

>> contract
>> >> plan and the gusto III for the contract plans cost about $90. I know

>> >> few people that are both on a contract plan with verizon that each

>> could
>> >> just be true for certain parts of the country. So if you're on a
>> >> contract plan with verizon see if you could get the gusto III on your
>> >> plan. The unlimited service with the prepaid is $35. 2 things about
>> the
>> >> gusto III, when you close the phone it will tell you the time and
>> date,
>> >> and each time you open the phone you'll hear the voice of the
>> activation
>> >> voice for you to please say a command, which is no trouble, just
>> press
>> >> the end key when you open the phone. The phone, anyway to me, has a
>> >> pleasant voice. If you have someone assisting you in one of the
>> stores
>> >> most of the sales associates know how to turn the speech on, but if
>> you
>> >> get one that isn't familiar what you want is full read out. My
>> neighbor
>> >> across the street was able to turn the speech on, on one of my gusto
>> >> threes so it's not that hard to do. Along with all that you have
>> caller
>> >> id too. I really love this phone.
