For something you can use for hours every day for the next half decade, that’s only about $8 a month. Each of my phones costs $480 a year just for service.
It's not about you. For a lot of people, $400 is a lot of money.
Not for people who can afford a cell phone. Let me repeat, a new SE2 costs about 1/4th as much as cell service.
Like most homeless people?
Keep moving goalposts. Homeless people can’t afford a SE2, but neither can they afford any cell phone.
They can.
