Anybody out there use Boost? Man I tell you they have unlimited everything and walkie-talkie for 50 and every 6months it drops 5 bucks till it get down to $35. Ive been with nextel for the last 10years and they have done nothing but take away and go up in price. Just figured I see what folks thought about Boost.
Ive had boost now for about 9 months. I used to have the walkie talkie fearture phone but upgraded to an android smartphone. hard to beat unlimited text, talk, messaging,email, and 3G web for $50/month.

I can vouch for Straight Talk from Wal Mart. Same unlimited everything for $45 / month. Straight Talk Android phones use Sprint towers. Wish I could have switched years ago. Verizon charged almost double where I'm at now for much less service as far as texts and data.
near me...where Boost must not have good roaming deals with other providers...it seems good in close to urban or well populated areas but sucks in more rural or remote areas...and their roaming is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.
Roaming contracts are sometimes negotiated on a market to market basis though so by you Boost might have better service.
I got that deal when it came out and I am @ the 35/month now. The broadband is no 4G but is fine for email and light surfing if you are not in a great hurray.
The other thing I have noticed is there coverage has gotten better. I had issues on a couple of lakes when I first got it but no issues now.

Thats what I thought but they have regular plans now, not just pay as you go. I have nextel now and we pay 110 for 3lines just beep-beep and cellular service no text or anything else.
