CrossRoads:
ting is on Sprint network, their data coverage isn't that good in my area according to their coverage maps.
Same here. Big hole of coverage in my neighborhood (less wireless radiation hazard for me?!) If I move to a larger city, I might try ting, seems cheap enough. I don't have/want iphone or their siri stuff. Heard rumor they send the entire voice over to apple to be recognized and send back. Could be a lot of 3G traffic.
