Cricket has $50 a month unlimited text/talk 1GB data
RS has the same but with "unlimited" non-3G data

BB has so much to choose from, I took home a booklet they give out for comparison.

If you don't really have a device or carrier preference, just looking for a small phone under 4.6 inches, than I would recommend the Motorola Driod Razr M (Verizon), or its brother the Atrix HD (AT&T). These phones on the inside are just as good as the s3 or the HTC One X, but they are smaller.

Or if you are willing to wait a bit, I would seriously recommend waiting for Windows Phone 8. The Nokia Lumia 820 gets my big recommendation. It is coming probably all the big carriers except Sprint.


Now if you are cheap, trust me on this, get the phone off contract, and use pay as you go.


You want to post a few devices you are considering? I can give you some advice.
