Have you ever noticed that picking a cell phone plan is quite an ordeal? One of the challenges you face is finding the right package for your needs especially when you may be using the phone for family and for your small business.

This can be a frustrating situation because you have to think about what you can afford and base that on getting the features that you either need or want. Often this means switching from one cell phone company to another in order to get what you want.

If you are a current Verizon Wireless prepay customer or if you don't have wireless and want it, now is the time to use it. Verizon has just announced that it is providing new services for its customers.

If you have been using prepay wireless, you can now have access to unlimited text, pictures and video messaging. If you need more pictures, you can pay another $10 a month and get more text, pictures and videos. This seems like such a deal.

If you have been a customer of Sprints for awhile, you are now going to be entered into an exclusive loyalty program, they are calling Spring Business Premier. This is going to be offered to all Spring Nextel or (NYSE:S) customers who are small as well as medium sized businesses.

If you have been thinking about buying the new Samsung Instinct™ EVDO handset that Sprint is now offering and you haven't bought it yet, you may have to wait awhile because they may not be available in your store.

These new phones became available in June and since then stores can't keep them on their shelves. These phones are so popular that the sales are continuing to be brisk and Sprint was able to break their own record for first week of sales.

It is difficult for phone companies to keep track of how people misuse their services and it costs them money when a service is abused. This crime however has become something that AT&T is attempting to stop.

People will do anything to make a buck and often this leads them into thinking that they will not get caught for doing something illegal. AT&T has decided they've had enough and they have started lawsuits against those people who are stealing their prepaid mobile phones.

AT&T has decided to work with Microsoft to be a part of their Partner Solutions Center. This seems to be a good idea so that more people can readily see what they are doing and developing. This seems to be a smart move on AT&T's part because they have more access to specific customers.

The reason they did this was so that Microsoft's customers would have an opportunity to test out many products of the Windows Mobile 6.0 probably before anyone else gets to test them. This will help businesses and individual customers over the long haul.

Sprint has really come a long way in listening to their subscribers and keeping up with necessary improvements to their offerings. Sprint is expanding their telephone service in several areas and adding cell phone available.

If you can't go to the 2008 Olympics this year but you have a variety of events that you just don't want to miss, you are in luck. Verizon has struck a deal with NBC to bring you all the play by play you can stand if you are a TV, broadband or wireless customer.

If you are a gamer who enjoys being able to play a multitude of games on a multitude of platforms then you will find AT&Ts Spore Origins for cell phones a unique idea. Although most cell phones have a limited amount of game play, AT&T goes one better.

Starting Sept 7, 2008 anyone purchasing an AT&T cell phone or High Speed Internet will have the ability to build their own worlds using many creative tools that include creatures, buildings, UFOs, and other aspects of an environment that is only limited by ones imagination.

If you are a business professional on the go that is looking for a high quality cell phone that will offer you the utmost in performance then the Mobile Treo 800 Smartphone might be just the ticket. This is AT&T's newest offering and it includes Windows Mobile 6.1 professional.
