To all - warning about wasting 39 cents (per minute) on Sprint PCS by doing something really dumb. Well, I just got the first Sprint PCS bill since my wife and I both became Thin Phone users. Apparently, when one delves into the menu of "neat" things that the Thin Phone can do, when you peek at the Internet stuff, even if you are NOT signed up, and do not "get in" (but merely reach the screen that says something like "not enabled"), you HAVE triggered a 39 cent a minute charge on your monthly bill ! Glad our dumbness is enriching a loyal Qualcomm customer. Jon.
