Cell phones
Getting ready to head out on the road in April and need to know about cell phone service. What is the best phone to buy and what service works good while traveling?

A Straight Talk smart phone using 3G Verizon is a good choice for what a lot of RVers consider the best overall coverage. But be SURE you buy the Verizon version of their phones. Straight Talk is also available for connecting to sprint towers - which you don't want. Straight Talk does not allow tethering (using your phone as a wi-fi hot spot). And in fact since they only allow 2.5 gig of service a month that would pretty much make tethering not too useful anyway. This a monthly pay as you go service.
