Phone Services in Portland, OR

LOL! IRONIC! I just looked at my 'snail mail' that I picked up today and there was an advertisement for VERIZON...500 anytime Minutes, UNLIMITED Text and UNLIMITED Mobile Web for $35.00 a month for a 'pre-paid', month to month plan. 1-888-483-3995 When you have a 'contract' plan, you're paying for that FREE phone.

We have used Verizon Wireless for years and as far as I am concerned it's the best. HAs the most coverage areas across the U.S.

Steve, that's because all Straight Talk phones are not VERIZON phones. If you purchase a Straight Talk phone that is a Sprint phone, it won't work in some areas because it only uses towers that where service is purchased for Sprint services (and Sprint DOES buy time from Verizon, but not everywhere). So, the phone you buy from Straight Talk, in order to ALWAYS use Verizon towers, has to be a Verizon enabled phone. It will have the VZ in the lower right hand corner of the box. Will work JUST LIKE A VERIZON phone and pick up the exact same service that Verizon customers pay more than twice the money for. Trust me, I have a niece who worked for Verizon for YEARS. Next time you're in Wal-Mart, look at the ST phones and look at the bottom right hand corner of the box. You'll see what I mean. They don't ALL have the VZ. They'll say, "CDMA VZ" if they work on Verizon towers.

Get Verizon through Millenicom.com and get unlimited for cheap. They've been charging me $59.99/month for years now and never charged extra for going over. I have the 10 gig plan and I know we've gone over a few times and they don't charge extra. I think it may be $69.99/month now, I don't know, but as long as I keep my plan, they don't raise the cost on me. Kind of unheard of these days.

We have yet to find a place we didn't get AT&T on our cell phones. We have Verizon MiFi for internet, and there are a couple of dead spots in Texas along I-10, but not for very long. Don't know about their cell service, other than the big problems they are having in the northeast.

iRobot.com my roomba 760 plays well with my wood floors and carpets and brings me closer to our cyborg future.

Well now you have come to the right place! Before he semi-retired John owned a sewing machine and vacuum business for over 40 years. In all that time my favorite upright and canister, and what I have had for years, is the Riccar. The company spends its money on quality and reliability instead of advertising, and it is actually made in this country! If you want to vusit with him as well as compare the top vacuums on the market, he works for a friend at SAVE Stores on Foster every Tuesday. Under any circumstances be wary of products that flood the media with ads and fill the big box stores. Pretty much all sizzle, no steak.

Molalla Communication for Internet and land line, buy an antenna for local channels. They can be found at any electronics store for $20 and up. We use the cheap one and it's perfect. Stream the rest of TV. You really don't want to pay $160+++ for cable or satellite and have nothing on but infomercials.

Molalla communications for internet. Super fast and great prices and service. I'd go with satellite for TV. I had a really awful time with Wave Broadband for cable.
