Most carriers now offer a variant on the unlimited cell phone plan. The days of rate plans segmented by minutes will likely come to an end in the next couple years. We’ll probably be left with unlimited rate plans and, for very light users, pay-as-you-go plans. Some of the prepaid offers have actually undercut the national carriers’ contract plans. This is somewhat different than traditional prepaid minutes that have usually been more expensive. However, those customers willing to sign a contract usually have access to better phones at a much lower price.

For those who qualify and who only need a cell phone for emergency situations, you may be able to get a cell phone and monthly allowance of minutes for free. A company called SafeLink Wireless is offering this in several states and it will soon expand to others. (Check their website for availability in your location).

This Sunday, February 15th, Verizon will launch a new feature on select rate plans called "Friends & Family". Similar to programs at T-Mobile (MyFaves) and Alltel (My Circle) -- now owned by Verizon -- customers will be allowed to select a group of numbers to whom they can make and receive calls, without the airtime counting against their monthly allowance. It will be available to both new and existing Verizon customers.

The Samsung Memoir (T929) is expected later this month. It will sport an 8 megapixel camera with 16x zoom, far better than the best camera phones currently on the market. The Memoir (aka the SGH-T929) will offer high speed data, a full HTML browser, a touchscreen QWERTY keyboard and expandable memory.

Do you text message? If you do, and you aren't on a text messaging plan with your carrier (or have free messaging as part of your rate plan), you are likely wasting money. This is the case even if you are sending or receiving just one text message a day. If you are sending & receiving just 4 messages a day, you could be overpaying to the tune of $200 per year.
MyRatePlan has just launched a new text plan calculator. Try it out... it only takes about 15 seconds and could save you a lot of money.
