simple mobile is only good for unlim. talk+text
they have a $50 plan with 500mb(im dead serious.) and a $60 plan with 2gigs.
each gig after is $10
my hd2 internet turned off after viewing 25 pages of the jewelry thread. called them like **$ and they said i was abusing the bandwidth.
they operate the exact same way as Tmobile does regarding internet on your phone, but Simple mobile will just TURN OFF your 3g internet connection, while Tmobile just throttles you down to very slow speeds.
but there is no other company where you can pay $40 for talk and text AND use sim cards.

Cricket and Metro PCS - Best option if you are looking for web access and good phones. Cricket and Metro PCS use CDMA phones and does not have a strict ESN list like Virgin mobile. You can get a Verizon or Sprint phone and have it "flashed" to work on Cricket and Metro PCS.
If you don't care so much about the handset I think Virgin mobile provides the most competitive rates while allowing web access.
If you are looking for talk and text, then Ninjahood is on point.
