No Contract Phones 2014
There are several people here (me included) on the look out for an inexpensive no-contract phone to be used as a pocket-sized media player. BF is a great time to get one, because prices get really low. The key thing is to avoid getting an underpowered device. This post will list the phones and key specs. Prices and stores will be listed on the
