[ale] [OT] A good place to by a used smart phone

Actually, except for the "free tracking", that's not a bad plan.  I might have to talk to them.  I have an older family plan.  The cost is about the same, but, there is a definite (fairly generous) limit on my minutes and texts.  I don't have a data plan for my old dumb phone.  Hmm, might have to get a smart phone.  I wouldn't want to sign a contract though.  I really like the coverage on verizon, and where my wife's folks are in Ohio, it's about the only thing that works.

Sincerely,

Ron

Please excuse my potential brevity if I'm typing on the touch screen.

(PS - If you email me and don't get a quick response, you might want to
call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
mailing lists and such.  I don't always see new email messages very quickly.)
