I left T-Mobile for MetroPCS when the AT&T acquisition started,... got a Samsung Galaxy Indulge on MetroPCS too...<div><br><div>If you are OK with a 4G service which is slower than any 3G carrier in existence, a phone that cannot last longer than 10 hours on battery, which crashes regularly and is overpriced for what a piece of junk it is, and spotty 4G coverage, with terrible customer service at every turn. Then I can recommend the Indulge on Metro... The "4G" service MIGHT reach 2mbit/s off peak on some towers. Near my house I regularly received less than 500kbit/s downstream and 1mbit/s upstream (When I even had 4G)... When you are not in a 4G service area it drops down to "1x" and is usually below 70-100kbit/s, which is a small improvement over dial-up. So you will definitely want to make sure you get reliable 4G service where you live if you go with MetroPCS.</div>

Does anyone know if one of the MetroPCS 4G LTE phones could be replacement for basic dsl. I was thinking of getting rid of my dsl and getting a Samsung Indulge($200) and just tethering my laptop to it.<br>
