"Not that the story need be long, but it will take a long while to make it short."
Thoreau. Letter to a Friend.
And there are variations of that quote, dating back to days of Cicero.
If your main concern is getting good reception (I live in an area with lots of hills) one of the options is to just get one of the two available WiFi phones (Nokia 6086 or Samsung t409) and not pay the $9.99 charge. According to the phone rep, the WiFi will work over any wireless router. T-Mobile offers two routers that cost about $50 that have the additional benefit of setting your phone into standby mode when the network is not receiving calls for a period of time. I'm going to try the Nokia with my existing NetGear wireless router. Wish me luck!
It just too easy for corporate drones that are behind the eight ball to blame hardware and software (and its support staff) for their problems. It's just an all-to-obvious dodge to try to buy more time.
Yeah. The idea being that we might receive insider information or such like. It was to insure the safest possible environment for our customers which was a good goal, but it was intolerable knowing that everything we did was monitored. I left a long time ago.;-)
Schwab has been doing background checks on their IT staff since at least 1998, when I started there. They also record all phone conversations, emails and open all your mail.

I know... You're thinking "Who has a land line these days?" But we do and that's where we get all the robo calls. I rarely get spam calls on my cell.
There's already a free solution for land lines: nomorobo.com. Been using it for about 6 months. Works great!!!
was on Wired blogs Nov 2nd...
I'm timing out. Also when I go to their finance.yahoo.com page. my.yahoo.com seems to still be working tho'.
instead of posting these lame ass stories...

The call only needs to initiate in a T-Mobile hotspot. You don't need to stay there to get the free call.

I was talking to a T-Mobile rep yesterday about this. She said that the monthly rate increases to $19.99 in September of this year.
