Hmm my history goes like this...
Optimus m & the ascend > indulge & admire > attain > connect > motion.
Those were just the ones I had service on with metro. My list of play phones with service on other carriers or no service are (Not only metro) :
Esteem, evo, galaxy s3, lg marquee, Droid razr, razr maxx (thinking about getting it connected, love this phone) conquer and a charge.
Tablets are :
Nexus 7 (16gb for me, 8gb for the wife), a pair of nook colors, a100, kindle fire and transformer prime.
Yes I spend a lot of money, but I'm addicted to gadgets and beer lol. What good is money if you don't spend it on what ya love? I also have a good chunk of money invested into Google play that almost borders on absurd.
Some of these devices are being sold on ebay though, others get played with by my 2 year old when daddy's done with em.
