Verizon user since Bell Atlantic Mobile...
I would say 8th grade so that would be 1996-7

Wow...I have had a cell phone for 9 years...just think about what I have paid in bills total.

Avg bill in the past 9 years is about $140 a month * 108 months = ~$15,000...jeez
Probably another $3-4K in phones

I got my first ATTWS (Cellular One) phone back in 1988. Been with Sprint ever since they started around '96 or '97.

yeah right now I am looking at after all taxes $115-120

back in 1999-2001 I had Verizon 2000 nationwide when it was $200 a month
but I needed it for work, it was well worth the money.
that came to $230 a month, it was just ridiculous.

Verizon for about 5 years now.
around here you almost have to go Sprint or verizon due to we live in such a rural area and Nextel won't use other people's towers. so if your out in the middle of nowhere and have a Nextel phone and have to make a emergency phone call your probably screwed. Plus i looked at the coverage
nextel vs verizon and verizon's was a lot better for me.
