My grandfather just got one from cincy bell, he lives in south dayton and does only get the 4G if hes within the city limits. Its a nice phone similar to design and speed of a droid x and he wont let me modd it
but i am a no go with GSM.
iv been with cricket for 4 years, yes they have terrible customer service but their prices are cheapest by far. im still with the Ascend for them, was thinking about the optiums but a cricket dealer said hold off for a few months. Seems They are getting 4 new android devices this year, mostly to replace what they have now.
The huawie X5 will be replacing the ascend here very soon so its looks like ascend users will not get the 2.2 upgrade. Notice the $99 price tag on them now. The x5 will have specs similar to the ascend X but will not be categorized as a high end phone like the ascend x and it might be 4g but circket (leap wireless) will not have 4g service in Ohio till 4th quarter 2011 if then. Should be about $140 when its out. Look up the specs it will make you want one. I cant wait to see how much it can be over clocked or if it really can do 720 HD and dual band Wifi N, gonna be a nice one.
Another one im interested to see is they will be getting their first tablet, It will be a viewsonic but no word on specs or 4g service. No word on the others yet but assume they will be bigger and badder than current models as they are there to replace them.
