Continuing my strange tradition of visiting places I've never been, with
neither plans nor advance notice, I just bought a plane ticket to Austin,
Texas, leaving Saturday afternoon. If you know of cool things to do in Austin
(or cool people who'll let me crash at their place for a while), please mail
me off-list.
But my other question is this: what's the cheapest way to have cell phone
access while I'm there? It was indispensible last year in Boston, since
that's how I got in touch with the people I met, but I ended up paying the
thieves at Sprint over $100 and a whole lot of headaches to get that one month
of service.
Anybody have a phone with nationwide coverage that they'd be willing to rent
me for 2 weeks? Does your plan make it easy to add and remove extra phones?
Do you have a phone I could borrow and connect with my own service to someone
other than Sprint? (I'd happily trade you the Sprint phone I was forced to
buy...) Know of good per-minute plans? (Last year they seemed too expensive,
especially since I actually end up using a lot of minutes calling people I
just met to try and organize fun things to do).
