Just a quick note to mention that we finally had time to pick up a new mobile phone (and associated service plan) for me this weekend. This wouldn't be so news-worthy, except that the four digit suffix of my new phone number is rather special: 1337.
This may not mean much to everyone in the audience, but for those who were involved in late BBS and early Internet eras (mostly in the early 90s), it is a number of great significance. I didn't go looking for that number, mind you, but it jumped out at me while browsing through a page of available numbers to choose from. I couldn't believe it...and I couldn't resist it.
Incidentally, I went for the cheapest service plan (since I am most definitely a "lightweight" phone user): about US$5 per month for 550 minutes. In Ann Arbor, I was paying about US$40 per month for about half the number of minutes with Verizon. Quite a difference.

So can you call the USA as cheaply?
With Skype, definitely, but not with the US$5 per month cell plan. Skype is definitely the cheapest thing we've got right now. :>
and i LOVE skype...very thankful for it!
