The holdouts get a free lunch.

Like me and Gino.....apparently in Feb 2022 AT&T wireless is shutting off the 3G feed.

The real holdouts get rewarded with a free new phone courtesy AT&T. And yes..... I hope it's a flip phone.Letter says "similar to your existing phone".Should be here in a week or 2.

I use it like a phone......not an alternate reality. Imagine if the feed went down to Google.....Chaos in the younger gen.

I have been getting warnings that my 2020 OnePlus 8 Pro, the $800 one, is not going to work when 3g is off... I don't know wtf.

Hard to believe a 1 year old phone that can't do 4G at least.

There probably going to send the modern version of the Jitterbug flip or whatever your carrier version is. I think it's called the lively. Not actually a terrible flip phone with some nice big ass buttons. Kind of appeals to my nearing 50 vision and the grandpa glasses I often have to use to read now, lol. It actually has some surprising functions. I think if I did not stream music off the phone I would be fine with that personally but it is what it is. They orient it as a minimalist, charges off usb C, and also has a little dock you can set it on to charge around the house,

It's a 5g capable phone...

I have no idea why they keep telling me that it's not going to work soon.

I'm just waiting to see what happens.

Your new phone will come in the form of an injection, and never need recharging.

Yes, I like cyber punk, but can they make it a movie?

Hmmmm.You'd actually have to read it to make a qualified decision......some books are better left in the Mind's Eye.
