I've already called this OFF-TOPIC earlier. I'm sorry your don't want to get an iPhone. But unless you want to talk about an app for that or other smartphone, what it cost to subscribe to one or not, has little or nothing to do with Vanagons.

I took it back to AT&T or one of their descendents to get it unlocked so I could switch it to another carrier.  The kids working there passed it around to each other to marvel at, as it was so "out of date" to them.

Anyone I want to communicate with knows that.  I can take pictures with a camera, and send them to anyone else on earth if they want them with my computer.
