Cell Phone Question

Posted: 6/19/2002 8:39:22 AM EDT

I need to replace my old cell phones and would like to replace them with Motorola's 270C model, do any members here use one and if so how do you like it? Also is their a better phone in the discounted price range of $115? Thanks Am-O-Tramp.

I've always used Motorola dual band Startacs with great results. More to the point, you really need to see what kind of coverage your provider has in the area you're interested in.
My wife decided to try ATT service and a Nokia phone and couldn't even get a signal where we live, while I got great service from Alltel and Motorola.

I have an Ericson phone and it's pretty good. Whatever you do please don't use WorldComm as your provider. THEY SUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you go to the right places and work out a deal, sometimes you can get the phone for free. But you might have to stay with that particular phone service provider and for a certain period of time to qualify.

Ask around and check it out. There are some great offers out there.

Nokia sucks. Always had problems with their phones and they were top line models. Erricson makes good quality phones, but I think Samsung makes the best. I've got the 8500 from Samsung with Sprint service and its great. Calls are always clear and billings serivce is exceptional.

My wife, daughter, her husband and I went with Nextel and got the Motorola i1000plus. Love the 'radio' capability. Upgrade on the phones was $75 each.
