Does anyone here have a prepaid mobile phone? If so, with whom and
how do
you like it?

A cell phone is a cell phone is a cell phone, even though there are
hundreds if not thousands of different ones. If the cell phone works
well as a cell phone, and most do, the prepaid bit won't make a
difference.



Snerk, Wrong again.



No, crap for brains, it is the coverage that accompanies the plan that
matters, not the cell phone. It's up to the provider to decide what
the coverage map will be with prepaid versus standard monthly plans.
So long as the phone "matches up" with the frequencies of the plan
being used, the phones as phones are pretty much the same.


Try reading for content. He was asking about the coverage and plans,
not a specific phone.



He asked about prepaid mobile *phones* and coverage. Why not just
stick to backstopping Loogie and JustASecondinBed?
