Comments on: To Droid or not to Droid, that is the question… http://www.sargonas.com/2009/12/08/to-droid-or-not-to-droid-that-is-the-question/ The rarely updated, but sometimes interesting blog of the Sargonas Sat, 05 Jun 2010 18:30:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: tatr http://www.sargonas.com/2009/12/08/to-droid-or-not-to-droid-that-is-the-question/#comment-655 tatr Wed, 09 Dec 2009 02:59:00 +0000 http://www.sargonas.com/?p=141#comment-655 Sarg: IIRC (and I've been doing a bit of research because I'm tired of the Death Star, too)... AT&T Term fee STARTS at $175, but decreases by $5/month for every completed month on your contract. I think if I were to switch in January that my ETF would only be about $120 since getting my iPhone 3g last December. I very much want an Android phone right now, and VZW is the ONLY carrier with 3G here, I'm probably going to stick with my iPhone but use it on TMo and get a better plan and better service for less $$/month. (Also, I hear that Tmo's wireless band is different than AT&T's and that the ANNOYING interference that the iPhone makes is NIL on Tmo's network.) Happy shopping! :) Sarg:

I'd even go so far as to import the Milestone if I had the $$, but it uses a completely different UMTS band than AT&T, so I would get no 3G whatsoever. Looking like I might be going after a Tilt2 (aka Touch Pro 2) at some point instead...
