no, it's a regular cell service. They just aren't as well known as the big ones.

You can only use their phones though, they won't let you use one from another service.

Yea, they are one of the last small time hold outs. Oh and they rent space with Verizon out of this market, in this market Verizon rents tower space from them.

Woke up this morning around 3am to see that a I finally received 2.2 update notice. Other than the physical changes I haven't noticed it to be any faster.

Is there an app to see my hardware's speed? I'm not talking about the ones that let you overclock since you to be unlocked to do that.


*edit*

Found SystemPanel from Nextapp. Has a lot of info.

1. Got 2.2 and got one thing I dont like. When I kill the web browser with advance task killer, then re-open the browser, it goes to the last website that I was at. I want it to go to google as I have it set to do in settings.


2. Where are all the cool games at for droids? There are some ok games but they look like atari compared to the games for iphones. I want some Angry Birds and shit.
