Damn, -t's in my thoughts, and I wish I could teleport her up here. We have a kind of spare bed (sure, it's in the basement with the spiders and we're using it for storage, but we could clear it off!).
Im toying with the idea of getting a pay-as-you-go phone/plan from T-Mobile. Anyone have any experience they want to share, or an alternate recommendation that I could get up and running by Thursday morning?
Dana, I've been on this since December. As long as you always remember to refill by the deadline, you're fine.
What there should be is an alarm clock with a wireless network connection so you can program your alarm clock from your computer and tell it what MP3 to use to wake you up.

If you don't refill by the deadline, you lose unused minutes, right? Other than that, are there any issues? Like, I use up all my minutes. I don't buy any for a while. Then I buy some new minutes. Are my service/number still good, or does the phone have to be in constant usage?
is your PC in your bedroom?
Yes, but I turn the screen (with speakers) off at night -- otherwise I can hear if it tries to connect to the internet to get my mail and fails.
I froogled "daily alarm clock" and one of the links was this, which scares me. I think I'll go have lunch and try again.
I couldn't have one of those if I lived in SoCal. I'd wake each day, sure there was an earthquake.

I think that now you can get minutes automatically billed when you run out. I hated loosing all my minutes - I think I wasted about $100 that way.
Other than that, are there any issues?
Back when I used them, if you wanted to pay a reasonable amount per minute you had to buy $100 at a time. So I'd buy $100, then buy $10 at a time until I ran out. But they may have changed their pricing scheme since then.
Now I use Virgin. I've been happy with it.

Other than losing my unused minutes, I didn't have any problems when I forgot to refill them this month.

Look out for Barbeau-bots.

I think T-Mobile's pricing scheme is still the same. Virgin, as far as I can tell, insists that you buy minutes at least every 90 days, which I'm not thrilled with.
Is the new tagline too long?
Also, could someone explain the difference between Bitches and Natter? What conversations go where?
