     Finally, a cell phone
     That"s ... a phone
     With rates as low as $3.75 per week!
     "Well, I finally did it. I finally decided to enter the digital age and get a cell phone. My kids have been
annoying me and the last straw was when my car broke down,and I was stuck by the highway for an hour
before someone stopped to help. But when I went to the cell phone store, I almost changed my mind. The
phones all have cameras, computers and a "global-positioning" something or other that"s supposed to spot
me from space. Goodness, all I want to do is to be able to talk to my grandkids! The people at the store
weren"t much help. They couldn"t understand why someone wouldn"t want a phone the size of a postage
stamp. And the rate plans! They were confusing, and expensive ... and the contract (合同) lasted for two
years! I"d almost given up until a friend told me about her new Jitterbug phone. Now, I have the
convenience and safety of being about to stay in touch --- with a phone I can actually use. "
     Affordable plans that I can understand-and no contract to sign (签订)!
Unlike other cell phones,
Jitterbug has plans that make sense. Why should I pay for minutes I"m never going to use? And if I do talk
more than I plan, I won"t find myself with no minutes like my friend who has a prepaid phone. Best of all,
there is no contract to sign-so I"m not locked in for years at a time. The US-based customer service is
second to none. And the phone gets service anywhere in the country.
