Has anyone used tracfone for their cell service?

I've got Tracfone, and it works fine for me. I've never come close to using all the minutes, and I got a plan that is Double Minutes for Life. The phone cost me 20 bucks and it does everything I need it to.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

wrong thread.

I've got a tracfone too. Works fine, but thinking about Virgin Mobile because of better phones/internet access. I also use skype as my landline. Will have to check out google voice.

I've been really happy with Virgin Mobile so far. It still amazes me that my monthly bill with unlimited data and texting is $15 cheaper than just my phone bill with T-Mobile.

Virgin is good if you are doing more than the minimum.But if you are just doing the 20 bucks worth of minutes every three months thing Trackfone is a better deal. Plus Tracfone offers better service if something goes wrong.

Okay, am I a complete idiot because I can't figure out how to use iCloud? I figured out how to sync contacts and calendars and whatnot. Does it not work like Dropbox?

Not really. You can use it with Pages and Numbers, etc., but it's pretty clunky for that purpose, as far as I can tell. I haven't really delved into it, though.

Dropbox is awesome, it works so smoothly for me with Windows, Linux, and iOS.

It looks like the Tracphone is going to happen. Should halve our cell phone costs.

Dropbox works the way technology should work, i.e., I don't think about it at all.
