    Just a warning to those new to this site: AT&T is a miserable company that ALWAYS offers cheap, refurbished phones in the hope of luring the unsuspecting into signing up for their overpriced prepaid plan. Get a phone - if you must - then unlock it - if you can (be sure to check that it's possible first) - and take it elsewhere.

    I hope AT&T is at least paying Ben well for his almost daily promos.

    I personally don't think this is a hot deal at all. I bought the same phone plus $25 phone card for free after cash back from another website(bacon.com). It's a better deal than this one.

    I own this phone..I bought it for $10 earlier. I would not say that this is the best phone ever...but it's nice for basic functions...only phone functions. Coverage is not really nice...this phone looses signal at many places...and yes most importantly this phone nokia 2610 is almost impossible to unlock for cheap (less then 5 bucks). So keep your calculations together before ordering it. Thanks...thats my 2 cents.

    I don't know how AT&T stays in this business with T-Mobile out there. I recently tried their service and they proved to be what #1 says. T-Mo is actually pretty good.

    I have Tmobile and am happy with it. Wish it was cheaper though naturally. Verison would be the only other I would consider but they are more expensive. The Tmobile Home and Tmobile @ Home are nice innovative products that others don't offer. I would have added these to my Tmobile account but ATT would raise my DSL rates $15 for dropping the land line and with the $10 a month for the Tmobile Home puts me back where I am now although the Tmobile has unlimited calling and all the features you normally get hosed on from the telicos. I don't use the land line much so it was all about saving some $. $10 for caller ID? 6$ for call waiting? Give me a break!! They did cut my DSL by $5 a month if I staid with them. I'm doing that for now. I may still try it on a trial basis in the near future to see how good it is and if there are issues with my Dish DVR's, or security system connecting which tends to be a problem with voice over IP before I switch my number over..
