My dilemma: I'm planning on going to Page Plus this Spring, and I
think this breaks that idea. Or is there/will there be an Android
phone compatible with PP's Internet service?



Page Plus doesn't have an internet service.....

You sure about that?


50MB/month on the $29.95 plan. 20MB/month on the $39.95 plan.

"Data Transport* $0.0012/KB ($1.20/MB)

*Data Transport - Data Transport is used to transmit and receive data for
MMS (Picture Messaging), WAP (Mobile Web), BREW (App Store), e-mail and all
other standard applications that require data not listed here. Standard
data transport for MMS messages will be between 20 KB and 200 KB ($0.024
and $0.24, respectively)."

No tethering, no aircards, no nothing.....It's not made for "features",
it's made to make phone calls, text message and MMS (but no MMS on the
unlimited text plan for some reason).

Hmm...let's see. The movie is a DivX 1.4GB, 1400 MB x $1.20 = $1,680 to
download a DivX movie. Any other silly questions?.....yecch!

It wasn't a silly question. Your position seems to make perfect
sense for a heavy INet user, but for a light user PP's offerings
are more reasonable.
