I'm 17, and i JUST got my FIRST cell phone lmao. I'm actuall starting to NEED a phone when I go out, so I figured I'd better get one for emergencies and such.
So, what do you look for in a phone? Camera, cool design, simple design, what?
I don't have friends that call me, and I only call my girlfriend or my relatives, so I didn't want to get a monthly plan that I would never use up and still have to pay for. I can seriously see myself using less than 100 minutes some months, and other months making no calls at all lol. So I chose this "packaged" deal with Cingular.
And the "Pay As You Go" phone plan. All in all, with the phone price, phone plan, activation, shipping, and a free $10 starter card, it cost me $49.99

hehe, I think that's the best deal I've ever seen.
