No, but to get their "deals" you usually need to sign 2 year. Like get $50 off a phone for 1 year contract, or $100 or $150 for 2 year contract......so the phone is cheap w/2 year but expensive with 1 year....they sucker you into it.

The downside I see to the number portability is that it'll probably start causing telemarketing a**f**kers to call cell phones and use the bs excuse "we didn't know it was a cell phone." Thank god for the DNC list.

The wireless telecoms so far have been wooing new customers strongly, many times at the expense of their existing customers. I'm curious to see whether they're going to focus more on existing customers now, or still try to woo new ones so badly.

Unfortunately for me I definitely can't get a deal with any other wireless provider for any less than what I pay now. I never pay over $33 final cost (after taxes, etc.) of the month for 600/3000@8 and wireless web. I don't know of anybody who can give me a price that good.
