Perhaps, but I have a Motorola v60i that I had moved over to
Free2Go when I moved the monthly service I was using it for to
Verizon. I could go back to using the Nokia 3600 that I got FAR
at 7-11, but the v60 is a much nicer phone. It just seems stupid
not to be able to use it given that it's already on the Free2Go
network.
