If he can tolerate Sprint then there's a way to get unlimited peak
minutes for about $55 per month. Sign up for unlimited Voicestick at
$200/year ($17/month) plus a $30 Sprint SERO plan with "To Home" added
on for $5 more, with the Voicestick number as your "home number." All
incoming calls to the Voicestick number are forwarded to the cell phone
at no extra cost because it's a call from your "home" number. For
outgoing calls, you call your Voicestick number and make the outgoing
call at no extra cost, because you're calling your "home number." For
less than 1000 peak minutes a month use the Voicestick NextToNothing plan.
