Okay .... here is the deal. Wife says not going to spend tons of money for a GN or SG3. (Watching the budget, etc.) What is the best lowest priced android phone to use with the Value Plan? I would like a front facing camera to use with Tango. Would also be nice that the phone would have the use of T-Mo's use of WiFi.
Another option for us would be not to have a data plan which is how we are now except we are paying more for an old off contract plan vs. signing a two year contract value plan. We us the home computer for all web browsing, etc. I would like to have a phone where I could use Swype for texting. Under these conditions what would be a decent android phone for cheap with a large screen so I could really Swype rather than on some of the smaller screens.
If your willing to go on the Classic Plan which is a little higher per month you can take advantage of the Samsung sale.

And 2 lines on the 1000min classic plan with 2gb data is $110/mo.
This sale would actually benefit you over the Value Plan as the total out of pocket is less
Value Plan
$300 down for two S2s
$20x2 per month for 20 months finance on phones ($800 total)
$100/mo Value Plan Contract (100min 2gb data)
Total cost over 24 months $3500
Classic Plan
$0 two S2s after rebate ($100 up front)
$0x2 per month for 20 months since T-Mo is subsidizing the phone not you
$120/mo Classic Plan contract (1000min 2gb data)
Total cost over 24 months $2880
S2 will do everything you want and is rumored to be getting Jelly Bean at some point after the S3s
Damn I should sell phones for a living
