im currently in aspect of purchasing two of these phones, with two questions, one of which i figured would be appropriate here, which is:
can anyone / someone confirm whether or not the Nokia N900 will support At&t GoPhone Service?
before i spend a good amount of cash on these phones.
this phone seems to be my dream-come-true and ultimate phone OS solution. (as i have yet to
EVER
have ever been able to find a phone with a quality OS, that hasnt pissed me off in
at least
ONE way or another--in many cases more.
ive always just had to SETTLE on a choice in one aspect or another. and everything i see about this phone, seems far too powerful for a cellphone to be capable of!! (sweeeeet!! lol) --even if not for all the awesome features, and ONLY accredited for the linux programming capabilities ALONE, that takes the cake!
even if i cant get gophone service on this beast, -- hell or even service at all! lol -- im nearly positive ill be acquiring more than one, even just for wireless capabilities.
-- their prepaid service is 3g, and i get unlimited talk, text & web, all for $50.00 USD /per 30 days.
just to note-- i think gophone is the most reasonable unlimited prepaid option available, comparing to my last carrier, Walmart/Tracphone's StraightTalk, with the same service plan (unlimited talk text web), for $5 cheaper.
out of their crap (imo) phones available, you can chose a gsm phone, which results in 'piggy-backing' on the same At&t towers too, so the service
should be
close the same, quality-wise... but its not --AND their web filters through a non-customizable homepage setting, with THEIR pre-chosen links, etc.. i REALLY cant STAND that ****.... -- but im getting off topic here..
// if i'm mistaken anywhere here feel free to correct me.. but im fairly certain of most of these facts--but also, its also just "last i knew" which was 4-5 months ago, when i left their service//
anyway, the simple point i wanted to make in all that above, is that i feel that paying $5 more for at&t's gophone service, is worth not dealing with straighttalk, (being the "cheapest" unlimited everything plan available, at $45 per 30days)
straighttalk, from tracphone, still breaches the line of being the 7-eleven bought types of $10 phones, with crap OS's.
I was extremely IMPRESSED with the QUALITY of service that AT&T offers via their pre-paid plan, (especially where-as gophone IS offered at convienience stores, ur just obv not gona find any good phones in that scenario..) i always have 3g coverage, and its SOO MUCH FASTER than what i was used to with straighttalk... and that IS supposedly on the same towers!
most of the posts above were talking about t-mobile, but i havnt had t-mobile service since in about 7-8 years.
so no comment on assumed comparison on which would be better for the n900
idk how i seem to drift off so much..sorry..... my intent is to only find an answer for my original question, which is simply:
whether or not anyone can confirm for me if the N900 supports at&t's gophone service
, or vise-versa?
Thanks for reading... and if anyone has an answer for me, thanks ahead of time, i raeaalllly could use the answer to this question... (preferably and hopefully to be CONFIRMED by someone--so if anyone actually IS using gophone with the n900, please let me know.)
Thanks again everyone..
