I started with cellular one (aka cingular, aka att) then went to sprint, then tmobile, then verizon. I kept verizon for 4 years and also picked up a sidekick through tmobile. Canceled the verizon in august, cuz they wanted me to pay $99.99 a month for internet, texting and minutes. With tmobile, I get unlimited texting, minutes, internet for $65.00. That's a no brainer right there....lol verizon wasn't bad and neither were their phones, just way too expensive for me

Iphone is 199, Verizon would be foolish to price it above what it competes against.

Yea, with a new/renew contract I can't see it being more than 200 if they want it to be a success

The Dare was 200 when it came out, and its 2/3's an iPhone.
This is a Blackberry. Even Apple undercut itself with the 2nd gen iPhone.
It really wouldnt surprise me.

the problem with the phone is the low memory. take out the battery once daily and it will free up the memory and make it run right. trust me, i'm on my third as well and have done massive google searching to figure that out

took care of that problem and got a memory card.. my main problem is randomly when i get a call i answer it and the people can hear me saying hello but i cant hear anything. i need to do the whole pull the battery and reset the POS which is annoying. and my next problem is that i have my left side shortcut button set up to compose a text..sometimes it works but randomly it calls people. deff a software problem that i had on all 3 phones.

i got the voyager but the battery life doesn't seem to last very long. I have a few more weeks to try it out and return it if I want. I've been considering going to the Dare. Any issues with the battery life and using the internet and lots of calls??

My brother has a Dare and he only has to charge it every few days with a significant amount of texting and internet use. Not a lot of calls though.
