Hows this ? FS: Samsung Galaxy S 2 unlocked $150 (12months)
Thinking of the extra payment per month as payment for the phone.
1 year's not bad considering if the value of sgs2 doesnt drop much.
*EDIT*
They said they dont have stock till next week.
But they're asking me to activate the plan first and get me the phone next week.
HMM.?

Why would you move back to a smaller screen? The only 2 things you'll get outta the trade is a physical keyboard and BBM.

Blackberry
Why would you move over to a company thats bound to fail?
Android is slowly going to take over, whether the RIM fanboys like to admit it or not.
And yes, I was once a RIM fanboy as well

LOL. I actually really like the email handling on my Android. Granted I'm using Moxier Mail but it works great and is just as fast as mail on a BB.

just got the phone. Looks great haha. Havent really played or tinkered with it yet, but is there a way to check the phones total minutes used? err lifetime of the phone.
yeah worried i bought my phone used. When i watched the unboxing there was a sticker on the box that said dont accept if the seal is broken and on my box there isnt a sticker at all. Also no color on the back of the box. Wasnt even shrink wraped. Just poped open. Should i be worried? Anyone with pics of their box? haha. Sorry for being so paranoid, just havent bought a phone for soo long. Just switched from bb.

This is the rom I am using, ultra stable and super fast, haven't had an issue with it yet. However, phone needs to be rooted so read up on that.
I have been flashing roms since my original SGSI, bricked a few times but never had an issue with the SGSII. CriskeloRomV15-S-BAR7-Tog-BLN-CallREC-Overscroll-3LS-CamHack-PWR-M-Esxt-(XXKH3-2.3.4) - xda-developers |

I have flashed a total of 12 roms between my SGSI and SGSII and they all offered improvements. However, I did read alot of posts before chosing a particular rom.
