Cellular + Wifi from one of the majors

Glenn Fleishman writes in the NYT about T-Mobile's combined cellular and wifi phones and plans. Glenn writes: "In my own testing, I found the service a reasonable first draft of what could become a reliable alternative to both all-cellular networks and an emerging set of Wi-Fi-only phones."

Discontent with a Cell Phone provider being kid friendly for a ridiculous price. US Cellular is the only cell phone company that doesn't allow you to load a ringtone unless you pay their wonderful $10 a month fee. However, if you don't pay the fee, but a pay-as-you-go, you have to pay for every ringtone you preview, for which my kid spent $40 last month doing so. This is not kid friendly. The other providers work with 3rd party tools (i.e., Data Pilot) to allow for uploading ringtones. Just a thought if you have kids and don't want them to have access to the internet.
