WHY??!? I'm waiting for my sprint contract to expire in december just so that i can switch. i've been with sprint for around 5 years. what i'm most pissed about is that they screwd me on the phone (i've been paying the loss insurance for around 4 years, and when my [discontinued] phone gave out on me, they've sent me (with a deductable) another much inferior and also discontinued phone, and i was notified in advance that i have 0 choice in the matter). anyway, i don't like a flip phone, and that's pretty much the only thing sprint carries (non-flip options are EXTREMELY limited). Also, what might be a big concern is the text messages. it's very easy on other carriers such as cingular and tmobile, but on sprint it requires to go through the web connection and is just a huge hassle in general.
Is there any real concerns that you have with cingular?? why do you say it's worried about loosing customers?! they seem to have the best plans right now (and phones, in my opinion). i've also considered tmobile, but the service is terrible from my experience (much inferior to sprint)
not specifically this, but OpenBSD i've ran for a while and it's been extremely good to me. There are a number of people i know who prefer *bsd's over linux
virtual desktops is a real pain. not even close to the convenience of having dual monitors. i've tried both, and have dual monitor setup at the moment. with dual desktops, you still have to switch between the desktops, vs. just glancing over on a second monitor. i'm not into gaming or graphics work, but there are a great number of advantages to a dual-monitor setup, most of which you don't even think of when you get it (got mine g400 dual as an experiment, now never going back).
actually, my car is '01 has '01 as the last year of production. i really love my car, and if it gets stolen in a year - i'll really be out of luck cause it's going to be pretty much irreplacable. i like it more than most cars twice it's price, and it's really going to be a bummer (i put a lot of money in upgrades, too, which will not be returned by insurance company)
