At the beginning of this month, I canceled the Internet service on my T-Mobile Dash. The subscription provides unlimited Internet access and access to T-Mobile HotSpots. Besides unlimited Internet service to my phone, I get unlimited access to any WiFi enabled device at a T-Mobile HotSpot. I’ve never used the latter option.
Our cable Internet service has been unreliable lately. We’re going to cancel it. It’s nice to have high-speed Internet, but it’s nicer to have reliable service. Unfortunately, DSL does not reach our home. We don’t have a landline, so dial-up is out; which is OK. Accessing the web through my mobile phone is actually faster than dial-up.
I tried to go without Internet at home and on my mobile. I really tried. But it’s impossible. I had some work to do tonight that required accessing my work accounts. This is just not doable at a library computer. I gave it a shot and it was simply not working out.
In the end, I called T-Mobile and added the Internet back on my phone. It should offset the cost of cable Internet. This will limit my ability to upload video to the web. However, most of my audio is done by calling in, so nothing will change there. I can still upload big files; it just takes longer. I caved; oh, well.
