$50.01

In case anyone is wondering, that is the precise and exact cost of one (1) soul belonging to Lindsay M Wright.

Well, previously belonging to me :)

I switched over to a BlackBerry today. And that's not the soul-selling part of the adventure. I switched over to a BlackBerry WITH MTS.

I know what you're thinking. "But Lindsay, you swore up and down and backwards and inside out and every other way that you would NEVER do business with them again!" Apparently, you should never say never. Because one day, your *other* cellular provider will annoy you to the point where you don't want to do business with anymore. And you'll start looking around, and you'll discover that the *evil* cellular provider offers:
- An unlimited data plan (my previous plan had NO data, and I could only choose a 500MB add-on but for significantly more money)
- 200 more daytime minutes than I previously had
- Unlimited evenings and weekends that begin 4 hours earlier than I previously had

AND they offered me $100 to switch from the provider that I currently hate quite a lot. (Oh, and did I mention that the actual monthly cost of my plan isn't changing at all? Because it's totally the same.) Subtract the $49.99 for a BlackBerry on a three-year contract, and there you have it.

I'm happy with the decision so far, but highly skeptical of cell companies in general. Who knows. Maybe MTS will end up impressing me. (Insert sarcastic laughter here.) In the meantime, UNLIMITED DATA makes Lindsay happy.

Now if only I could figure out how to work this darn thing.
