  2. As their first Android, which Virgin is trying to clear out, PC Mobile’s 2.1 choice is a little disappointing, but the price is just about right…

    But even if they had a better Android, PC’s plans aren’t really that great. It seems like they are only good as emergency prepaid service.

    Considering all this, maybe buying an Android elsewhere, then unlocking it, makes more sense than to buy an obsolete smartphone.

    • I think you mean that’s how much you pay for horrible coverage and dropped calls.
