We've had verizonwireless for a long time now, it used to be Bell Atlantic Mobile, but switch to Verizon about 4 years ago. Been very happy with them. Right now, I have a plan where I get 350 peak minutes and 3150 off-peak minutes with free long-distance and no roaming if I call within North and South Carolina for $35/month, plus $20/month for an extra line for the wife which share those minutes (We do get 250 mobil-to-mobil minutes). Everytime I renew, the plans get better and the costs get lower. Verizon also has pre-pay phones. IE, you buy a phone and fixed minutes with no contract.
Competition is tight between the wireless companies. So shop around and use them against each other. I stay with Verison because, I threaten to leave them everytime my contract renews (not because I have problems, but to get the best deals). Then I get free phones, no activation fees, and decent plans, etc. for signing a year contract.
Just don't pay too much for a phone, I am a very basic cell phone user, I just get whatever they'll give me for free. Don't pay for more of a plan than you'll use, and becareful not to overuse your new toy, if you get a limited plan.
Hope this helps,
RP
