now that i have hot water, and have a weeks worth of beard to get rid of, i am left with the hyper important question of whether to leave the mustache or not.

hahahaha.

ok ima try the math ... but gimme some leeway here bc i studied fine art undergrad, and law school now, so math is not my strongpoint ...

etf (350 - months i've completed in my contract so far (18) so -180) = 170 (is that right?)
nex4 = 350
amt i would spend for first month plus sim on Straight talk (because its the more expensive, might go with tmo but for calculations sake) = 65
porting my number to google = 20
total = 605

spending 5 more months with verizon = 400
nex4 = 350
new sim and service for a month = 65
port # = 20
total = 835

hm.

Am I missing something here? Where is the cost of service for Tmo data?

I'm more of a german car kinda guy (bad jew).

Lolz.

Yes, for Movember. I think a handlebar with wax is in order. Goggles and hat optional.

You don't by any chance want to do that for zip 20111 do you?

I could, but it'll cost you...

Lolz.

the tmo is 30 but straight talk is 45. they both charge something like 10-15 for the new sim. i used ST to round up, and added some extra rounding up to account for tax and things like that just in case - so i got 65. probably on the high side.

tmo would be more like ... 45 total for activation and sim and first month.

the real thing is the etf - 18 months completed in my contract, would mean 180 off the 350 etf??

They're just expensive, lol.. as my maths before showed I can save a ton by switching, and if the coverage is just as good it's silly to pay so much (sorry AB, maybe it's time to move into the big city )

Zero.. Google charges $20 to port your number into Voice? Not that its much... my thing with Voice is I've always been sketch about how reliable it is for calls. Anyone with experience using it? I have a Gvoice number I use for the ladies (lol) and the few phone calls I've used it for have been inconsistent in terms of quality.. plus I wonder if you need to have a solid data connection and be connected to Google's servers to get calls? Answers me!

Looking into a mustang? dope.

I'm more of a german car kinda guy (bad jew). I'm eyeing Audi s5 for when i get paid ... if that ever happens.

We're talking about cars now? Don't get me started... cause I won't stop. Anyways, what I'm looking at sometime in the next year:

Mid-90's BMW 850Ci (not CSi unfortunately), in a specific color of red or silver. Not sure yet. 5.4-liter V12.

Nope, I save far more in property taxes. It'd probably be an extra $1k at least in property taxes a bit closer to Chicago (still in Indiana, however). And on the Illinois side maybe $2-3k more in taxes.

from what i read, making calls with it is not always great quality. but, if you port your number to gvoice, then you connect your google to whatever your new number is with your provider and all your calls get forwarded. this way, you keep your current number and dont ahve to tell everyone the new burner number.

for bmw, i like the 335s. lots of power in the smaller body size.

Like.

I'm actually in the process of trying to find a way to finance a new daily driver. Truck costs a bit much in gas. Currently leaning heavily towards an '03+ Lincoln LS V8. Wouldn't quite double my mileage, but I do like that car (and it's pretty cheap on the used market)...

But what is confusing me is why you are only counting usage for the first month, but, 400 for Verizon for five months. Shouldn't you be including five months of Tmo usage?

56K new for one...Mustang GT is 32 K...also faster. My priorities have shifted back to my teens though, so YMMV lol

ummmm yeah i guess so haha. i was just basically thinking up front cost of etf vs sticking it out with verizon. but that makes sense. it would cost another several months to terminate in the new service ....

too much math .. vision getting fuzzy

Ahh... so to clarify and because I like repetition .... current number gets ported to Google, I activate the new phone on Tmo and get a number from them, and tell Google to forward all calls to the new number, so data connection isn't a concern? That would be nice..

yeah .. but when you port you automatically terminate your contract with vzw ...

so then, once it's ported, you have all your google voice calls fwd to your new phone ... i think that uses the minutes on the phone, not google voice minutes but i'm not sure ...

then, if you want to make calls directly from the google voice, you do so over the internet with gvoice minutes, and you use something like grooveip app. there's a couple of apps. iwas reading about it the last few days , let me see if i can find the links ...
there's a thread at xda with how to switch to tmo and profit immensely ...
