Hi Scott,

 RM> 
 RM> SC> Hopefully that is the case, in our
 RM> SC> market, it isn't, both the cellular
 RM> SC> carriers as well as cellular USA, a
 RM> SC> cellular reseller, also requires a one

 RM> SC> Cellular One in Boston does allow you to
 RM> SC> sign up without a contract but it

 RM> SC> Hopefully in most other markets, things
 RM> SC> aren't so rigid and the cell phone

 RM> Well, I know that Bell Atlantic Nynex
 RM> will give you a $50.00 rebate if
 RM> you sign up with them and use your own
 RM> equipment. Me, my wife, & sister
 RM> all deal with Comcast Metrophone, and
 RM> have all been contacted by Bell
 RM> Atlantic to switch over to them, offering the same deal that we get
 RM> with Comcast. They call and make us think that they're Comcast
 RM> offering an upgrade, but later we find out that they're the other
 RM> company. A dead givaway is when they tell
 RM> us that we have to get a new
 RM> cell number. I already upgraded with Comcast, and I didn't have to
 RM> change a thing. They gave me a new phone,
 RM> and programmed it. I have the
 RM> old phone in the closet, as it's mine
 RM> from the company when I started
 RM> my first contract.
