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.
I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

Hey. New board.
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.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
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?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yeah, I was afraid you might ask that. Let me see if I can find them. I think I got them from Best Buy.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What's the price range on reasonable ones?
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...

My current headphones are cheap $10 ones from Target, but they're just plain headphones - they don't have a speaker or a button to answer calls, so if someone calls me while I'm listening to a podcast I have to take them off to talk.
The Apple-branded in-ear iPhone earbuds are $80. Which is way too much, but the $30 Altec-Lansing ones I used to have fell apart after a couple of months, so the extra $$ may be worth it in the end.
