When you say "data," are you talking about using your phone(s) as a modem,
connected to a laptop? If so, you're talking big bucks.

Hello,

A sales rep at Sprint mentioned a 4500 minute plan. I don't see it on their
website - anyone else using this family plan? Any details on how much you
are paying - and what else is included?

I think I'd like about 100 text messages on all my phones - not sure if I
want data but I want data on at least two - I don't need TV but unlimited
data. I'll want 7PM nights and weekends - mobile to mobile.

Any info would be helpful.

No, I have a couple of PPC6700 phones that I'll use to browse the web and
get e-mail.

"comcast", your PC's clock is about seven minutes fast.
It's weird to see a reply to your post listed BEFORE the original post.

We are going to get the PPC 6700 phones. We want two of them. We are
planning on getting them soon.

It's not a matter of your time zone, your clock appears to be running fast.

As John said, your questions are showing up after the responses.

Notan

My clock is synched with an atomic clock - set for Pacific time. Others may
reply from different zones or have different issues with their clock or your
news reader may have issues.

My clock is 100% correct.

I guess I'd be more concerned if people were actually responding to my post
regarding the minutes and the deals. I don't really care about who is
getting what phone, what the time on my PC.

I guess that pretty much sums it up, huh?

If we're not helping *you,* piss on us.

Notan

I'm not trying to piss on anyone but if I posted asking about minutes and
all I got back was hey you used the wrong tense of a verb, the agreement is
wrong in your third sentence, you could use a semi-colon blah blah blah - it
really isn't why I posted here.

If someone said hey the attachment you included had a virus, I would
consider that commenting on but the others don't really apply.

Someone asked for ringtones and I gave a place to get them - I didn't say
you can get cases for your phone in black - it really doesn't help that
person much.

Will someone just post something related to the OP ? If his clock is fast,
fine, what about his OP?

Ok, here's a reply to the OP. Obviously, no one here is familiar with that
plan, or someone would have posted something on it ...

Bob

The Sprint PCS sytem requires a Stratum 1 clock for synchronization at each
cell site.
The time on your PCS phones are set by that and you are all walking around
with an
"atomic clock" on your hip. I have seen the display turn over a little slow
(1/2 second)
when the phone was busy, but it is very close.

Thomas - the NTP protocol is pretty good as you say but I don't think he was
referring
to the internet time as his "atomic clock" There are many clocks out there
that are set
by the 60 Khz national time standard transmission and are referred to atomic
clocks because
that signal is locked to a cesium clock that takes its feed from (I think) 7
other cesium quad
standards from all around the world. I also have a GPS watch (Casio) that
can be considered
an atomic clock because the satellites require Stratum 1 clocks to maintain
their effectiveness

Sorry for being long winded.
