Instead of Cheap Phones

How about lowing the outrageous monthly fee, roaming fee, data fee, and other government mendated fee? People in US are paying way too much to get too little on cell phone services :)

Gimme a break

Any one in a third world nation can get the most advanced cell phone ever created for dirt cheap, while here in America I have to go through a credit check and need to plop down a $500 deposit because of it!

My virgin cost $29

Big deal -- you can get a cell phone for $29 from Virgin Mobile and pay as you go!
