the best deal for you, would be to not get one.

considering the long distance bills have been more then the cost of a cell phone, its worth it.

well if its area dependant, give me some companies i could check out. :D

What area do you live in? Here's a list of the nationwide carriers. There may be a regional/rural carrier in your area (i.e. Suncom, US Cellular, Qwest, etc).

Sprint PCS
Verizon Wireless
AT&T Wireless
Nextel
Cingular

Refer to the now lengthy Sprint PCS thread in Suckage forum. More than you ever wanted to know about cell phones.

Currently I'm with Cingular, on a family plan thing with a free Ericsson T28z phone. No complaints, my calls don't drop, except when in my room there's this one spot on my nightstand that gets reception. It really depends on your area though, and you have to go shop around.
