Hello Folks -
I hope this is an appropriate question for this forum. If not - please let me know.
I currently have no phone, though I used to own a G1, and I am an Android fan. The reason I have no phone is that I only occasionally have need for a phone outside of work and home, and I don't enjoy paying $80/month for something that I only use occasionally. At home I use Google Voice.
However, there is that occasion. Maybe a day or a weekend, where I want to take a short trip, and I can't rely on having WiFi available for my laptop. In these instances it would be convenient to have both voice and data available on a mobile device. Does anyone know if any carrier in the U.S. has a prepaid or pay-as-you-go (essentially no monthly fee) for both data and voice? I don't mind paying for it when I want it, but just don't want to pay a monthly fee for something that I might or might not use that month.
Thanks for any advice!
