I mean, if I go to their website I can't even see how much their internet access costs until I add one of their phones to my shopping basket.
I'm seeing Web and Apps at $5.99 a mo.
Darn your sinister attraction!

Hey. New board.
Say I've picked an unlocked phone to buy, and I want to switch to T-Mobile. How are they about all that?
They're fine. The webstore is kind of a pain about it, but go into a store and they'll be like "Oh, SIM card only? No problem." They'll still lock you into a 1-year contract, but they're nice about it, especially if you know what features you want.
What kind of phone did you go for? Some phones can use their T-Zones internet (my Treo 680 for example) for a mere $5.99 a month unlimited, if all you need is basic web browsing stuff (it works fine as a bluetooth modem for my laptop, too).
ETA: Also, once you're signed on, the MyTMobile page works great for adding and removing features, if you want to just get a plan upfront and add the internet and whatnot later.

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

I couldn't find the list without pretending I was going to buy a phone.
I'm looking to get a Nokia E70, if I'm remembering model names right.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
I don't remember if I had to do that or not, but then, I already bought one of their phones.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
So, anyone know how I can save videos from photobucket?
Firefox with the Download Helper add-on [link] can do it. You'll need an app. that can play .flv files.

All is well that ends in pizza.

anybody know why a McAfee update would make the internet stop working on my laptop? i know that's what it is because i've had to do a system restore twice after McAfee decided to automatically update. i've now turned it off automatic updates, but it keeps bugging to do one. i thought it might be something to do with the firewall, but i messed around with it and it didn't seem to solve the problem.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
tiggy, I haven't run into McAfee problems myself, but there are a lot of people complaining on the internets about having the same problem since recent updates. McAfee has a page up with information on how to completely remove and reinstall the software: [link]

Nevermind...I had an 'identity' problem. Still unclear how it got switched without me doing the switching. But my email is back.
Nothing to see here.
Aaaagh.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm pretty sure there's no one here who uses VBScript and ADO for ASP, but if someone is familiar with this, could you lend me a hand?
