[Verizon] New 4.2.2 Radios (Soon)!

[Caveman419]

Maybe they made the radios worse to force us to buy new phones this year - hopefully subsidized so we break our unlimited data

Not to worry, Big Red: I will be buying a new phone... but it'll be FULL RETAIL and I'm keeping my unlimited data, thank you!

I was prepared to buy my Note 2 at full retail, but the guy at Verizon store added another line, pulled the Note 2 off (as to not screw with my unlimited data), gave me a cheap little clam shell phone to throw on that line and handed the Note 2 to me. I pulled the sim card out of my GNex and now have a Note 2 & GNex to use. I love how the Verizon Reps (the good ones) help sidestep Big Red's law.

And what to do with the extra line? I already have FOUR lines!

I only had three (just canceled the fourth when my son went to Virgin Mobile). We might switch it to a home line to get rid of our land line from AT&T.

i'm hoping google offers a great phone free and clear for $99 (something WAY better than the nexus 4) so i don't have to pay verizon $600 for something decent to keep my unlimited data. highly doubtful it'll happen though

Well, you CAN hope....

Ha ha I keep checking swappa and the darn nice Moto Maxx's cost too much still.

I have heard that "Hope springs eternal".

Or at least every two years when your contract comes due.
