  3. no, bluetooth IS NOT synonomous with internet. you need VCAST to get the internet. on the newer phones, theyve taken steps via software to eliminate ones ability to use vcast as a modem. can you still hack it? probably, but i imagine it would be more complicated. the second option is illegal because verizon says it is. they want you to pay for the full on internet package if youre going to be using the full on internet. vcast is substantially less ($55 vs. $15), but its the same internet, at the same speed.
  4. a quick word about this... its INSURANCE. compare it to other types of insurance. if i get into a wreck with my car, i dont have the opportunity to "upgrade" to a better car for the difference plus the deductible, do i? phone depreciate, just like cars, except much, much faster. one other note, verizon has nothing to do with the insurance, save selling it. the company you should be angry with is called asurion. about the insurance being a scam? well, i have no idea about that. the problem most people run into is that they dont think when i ask them, "do you want to insure your phone?" they dont ask me any questions about it. there is some very simple math you can do and save yourself (and me) a lot of headaches. two examples... how much did this phone cost me today? $0 $100 how much is the insurance going to cost me over the life of a two year plan? $120 $120 whats the deductable on my plan? $50 $50 if i break my phone before my contract is up, how much will it cost at retail to replace? $150 $270 as you can see, its not always smart to get the insurance. anytime you buy a phone that can be replaced for less than about $170, youre losing money. if you come in and get an lg 3300, i will most likely advise you not to even bother. enough of that. shawn, if you want to do that, then do it. the only way any company is going to change any of its policies (even the dumb ones) is when it starts to hurt. if it begins costing them money, you can be sure something about the way they do it will change. be forewarned, though, that you will lose your phone number. theres no way for you to keep it. sorry homie.

    poker game, 1.27.06

    unfortunately, no. if i have anything to do with the running of a new game, cr will get a post about it, for sure.
  6. lol. this was the first thing i heard about when i got into work this morning. jesse doesnt think youre a lunatic, alex, just very rare. given our location and the demographic, people that try to do the right thing are few and far between. props to you though, we actually got hold of the owners, and theyll be in tonight. should they have anything to say about it, ill be sure and pass it along.
  7. couple ways to get what you want man. 1 the legal way. buy a verizon phone with vcast and bluetooth, like the lg 8300, pay like 50 bucks extra a month for the internet service, and be on your way. this is the way verizon would like for you to do things. 2 the smart way. get your self one of our older model phones, like the lg 8100, add vcast for 15 a month, and then have a chat with shawn jones (beaviz jones). the other day, he came over and he had his laptop, and my desktop, both linked via bluetooth to his phone, and we were surfing at about 1.5 mbps. this is the way that verizon most definately doesnt want you to do things.
  8. now all we need is some air for it.
  9. what time are you going in, homie?
