new phones

While my little sister was in town she ran a few errands. One of those errands was taking my mom's blackberry to the verizon store. Somehow, when she hit the tree the phone got screwed up...can't imagine how(sarcasm). Anyway, JR was looking at her phone...she has a Droid Eris...he seemed to really like it, but then he switched and started playing with Brandon's Droid..apparently it is the regular one. He seemed to like both of them....I was pretty much in lala land. I have never had the "it" phone or anything like that...I go for functional...all I need is for my phone to make and receive calls, and texts. JR bought an iPod Touch a few months ago, and we were planning on getting him an iPhone, but there were so many things that we weren't big fans of...INCLUDING THE BILL! He ended up jailbreaking the iPod so that it was easier to get free aps, and he enjoyed it for a while...in fact it was really great for Logan, we put a few movies on it so Logan could watch Toy Story and Cars anywhere we went. So Vanessa told us that Verizon had a sale on some of their Droids, and that the Eris was buy one get one free, plus a reduced price. JR played with her phone for about 3 hours straight before looking at me and saying he wanted to go to the store to get it. I said we could go to the store and look but not to get his hopes up....well, we ended up coming home with the Droids. LOL I dont think either of us have put our phones down since we got them. I have put so many apps on my phone, its insane. And better than anything they are all free! Hahaha....I am not excited that we have gone from paying $90 a month on TWO phones to now paying $160 on our phones, but JR is so happy that it makes it worth it. The man has been wanting a smart phone for a very long time now, So I am happy that he got something that he wanted so badly, and that I got one as well! We got a plan that shares 1700 minutes, but its free when I call anyone on the verizon network, plus anything after 9:00, and on the weekends...AND we got a top 10, so that anyone in those top 10 no matter what network are free. I checked today and I have used 2 minutes...hahaha I live this thing!
