I'm leery about buying in-the-ear phones for someone who hasn't worn them before just in case they chafe. What's the price range on reasonable ones?
I go through a couple pair of earphones a year. My current ones (which have the behind-the-ear hook to keep them in place) were on sale for $7, regular price $15. And much of the time, I can keep the volume at minimum.
I bought some Sony ones that I love, and they were no more than $30.
I love T-Mobile's customer service. I may get the occasional dropped call, and sometimes coverage is weird (but I really don't know whether other providers would get coverage in those areas anyway), but in my six years of being with T-Mobile, all but one of my customer service calls have been great.
Yeah. I liked T-Mobile a lot for service and NYC coverage, but it was frustrating getting no coverage on most of my long road trips (which I've been taking a lot of having inherited a dog with my fiancé.) Plus, their phones just aren't nearly as good as I'd like, being a gadgetphile. (sorry, G1, but you were a first-gen product and kind of sucked, and the new one isn't that great either, apparently.)
Dana, do you have a model name or a link? Hopefully it's something I could dart into Best Buy and get.
Does anyone here use Google's advanced search? Whatinhell does "Numeric Range" mean?
And has anyone ever used the "pages similar to"? Is it useful?
Yeah, I was afraid you might ask that. Let me see if I can find them. I think I got them from Best Buy.
Whatinhell does "Numeric Range" mean?
I think that's a search that matches if page contains a number within the specified range. Like a dollar range. I suppose, if you combine that with a clever text search parameter, it could be useful.
I'm pretty sure it's these:

Looking at the iTunes store, I'd say $50-ish to $100 or more....

Their example, $1500-$3000 leaves me unsure if I should use a currency indicator. Also, say I was interested in that range--wouldn't I get back a whole lot of pages date stamped--oh, any time the web has been active? Context-free numeric range searching seems a very odd thing to consider of value.
Dana, those look like just the sort of thing. And if she doesn't like them, I'll just keep them. I'm that sort of a Santa.

Hmm. How to value my sister...
