Book Description
Consumers are paying between 50% and 500% too much every month got the services that keep them in touch, in tune, and informed. Why would anyone pay $.30 per minute for long distance when they could pay just $.05? The answer is because there has not been a good way to determine the correct services based on the way YOU use your wireless phone.

The Consumers Guide to Cell Phones & Wireless Service Plans will lead you through the maze of offerings based on how you will use your phone. You will learn how to choose:
· a wireless phone and service
· the right roaming options
· the best accessories
· between local, regional, and national plans

And you will learn what questions to ask:
· Who has the best quality of service?
· What types of special deals and promotions are available?
· What services are available to me?
· What services can I get from third parties?

Good Introduction, Saturday, August 13, 2005

A well written book on cell phones. Cell phone plans and services are changing as we speak now, but kudos to the authors for taking the difficult task of describing the services. If you find the cell phone plans and services confusing, this book is a good start. Without getting too much technical, the book describes the technical aspects of wireless technology in a easy-to-understand language. The FAQ was particularly useful.

Great for those planning on a cell phone gift for the holida, Wednesday, October 30, 2002

Great book. Cuts through the double-talk you get these days from the big wireless providers and shows you the real deals.
