Oh my gawd, you people are so clueless....but I am here to help...
Ampd is excellent. I was an indirect agent and learned about the phones and they are basically, better verizon phones when it comes down the the amount of content available and the fact that they run on verizons huge network.
The site looks great to me though, although they should put more info out in the open to avoid the numerous reposts of these basic questions.
I just switched to ampd from verizon to save money and because with my chocolate phone i was getting 1 bar where the ampd phones got 3...the chocolate is not good for reception and is always going between 1-3 bars if any at my house, its quite odd. Works everywhere else I have been though.
anyway, ampd is new, excellent cheaper verizon service with much more to offer. They have been expanding huge amounts. They intend to have 10x more locations within the next 2 years! and have been selling quite well in all stores, much better than compaired to other newly started phone services such as disney, and helio.
Hope this helped you all!
