    Hi, thanks for comming.
    What happened was i got a Razr phone and this afternoon i happened to be bored and so i clicked on the media net button and i didn't know that they will charge you. So after looking around for only about 5 minutes and i exist the place. Then the phone said "35,256 bytes tranfered".
    After that i found out that they actually charge you $.01 per kilobyte. Does it mean that i will have to pay like about $352 for just only looking around for 5 minutes. If so then this is totally weird and i'm going to get in trouble with my dad for sure!

    Another question, not about the phone but about this website.
    If you look on the left of your post, you will see something like "CPF $: 30.00"
    Don't tell me they charging me for something. -_-

    I think you can calm down a bit....

    A file size of 35256 bytes can also be expressed as
    282048 bits
    35256 bytes
    34.430 kilobytes (abbreviated as KB or Kb*)

    So that would be $0.01 times 34.430 kilobytes for the grand total of $0.034 cents. Heheh but yeah that does tend to freak you out when you add it up, thinking Bytes times .01 !

    35,256 bytes transfered means 35 kilobytes. According to that rate, you will be charged 35 cents. Not to worry, i am sure dad can pay that.

    Edit. sorry, I didnt see, someone had already replied.

    Thats Cell Phone Forum $. That what this website pays you to make posts on this website. Btw, You can use these CPF$ in this website only. So do not go to Walmart and try to buy something with it.

    Cell_phone_etc never feel bad about answering a question that's already been answered. Sometimes I don't see replies before I answer a post, only to see it was answered 30 times before I did.
