He loves his phone, the $249 one. As I don't need a data plan it would cost me $10 a
month.

Ban idiots, not guns!

the coverage map isn't great.

It looks like this uses the Sprint network but you are supposed to do
most of your calling via WiFi.
I am tagged on my wife's plan with no data and I don't use 50 minutes
a year so it is pretty cheap. Most of them are Verison to Verison so
they don't count anyway.


I use about 300 minutes a month for "voice calls" on my cell, and I have
four others on my cell account for whom I pay. Verizon's coverage seems
pretty decent in most places.

I didn't use that many minutes when I was working. I cruised around
140-150. Most of the guys were more like your 300 or more.
Most of it was that I was not that comfortable talking on the road. We
also had our PTs (blackberry sort of thing) so we didn't need a phone
to talk to each other.,


A couple of my clients and their staffs like to talk about *everything*.
If I can prevent a face to face meeting by yakking on the phone for an
hour, I'll do it with a smile. Also, I sometimes have to proofread and
fix some of their work product. It's easier to do this on the phone than
mark something up with WORD.
