Cell Phone Changes

Phase 1 of "Get an iPhone when it comes out" is complete. I have all but vanquished my existing cell phone plan and number.

However...

They still exist. I have converted my current plan into a "pay as you go" plan.
Here's how it works:
-Every day that I use my phone I am charged $1.
-Every minute I talk is $0.10
-Every text message is $0.15
-Either an accepted call or text message will count as "phone usage" and will trigger the $1.00 fee.

Here's how it effects you:
-Don't call me or text message me @ my current cell phone #.
-Instead, contact me through my work cell #.
-To get that number, please request it by emailing me. <--click that link to open default email editor. or..... tyhuze@gmail.com (same as link)
-If you do call me on my cell, I will more than likely call you back from my work cell, so don't expect an answer, and by all means, don't leave a voice mail.

So why would I keep the phone and number?
-I have many names and numbers that I don't feel like transferring to my work phone.
-I have registered my cell number as my "home" number for so many websites, policies, official profiles that changing it would be a kind of pain.
-Many people who have my current cell number don't read this blog and I'm not going to call them all to tell them.
-Emergencies.
-I hate my work cell phone.
