who's hungry for data?

You know you're tempted to jump on the m class bandwagon with the US carriers offering new flat rate data pricing.

Wait - you're not tempted? You say you don't care? That you only use your phone to call and maybe to text? That even if it's not that expensive, it's still a pain -- and who needs to figure out how to do one more thing. Not you, right?

I hear you. It took me awhile to convert to the m class. I was one of the last holdouts among my friends to get a cell phone. I didn't want to be on-call, always available 24-7. I didn't like the idea that the world required me to have a mobile phone.

Then I got one as a present. And it changed my life. Maybe you've had this experience? All of you that use your mobile phone to stay connected via voice services while you are on the go - imagine your life for a second without this. It's hard, no?

This is how it works with mobile data services as well. I don't need it, you say. I don't care, you say. It's expensive, you say. Then -- once it's integrated into your life, you wonder how you ever lived without it.

You can wait. You can listen to your friends who check it out and share what they learn.

Or, you can just dive in. Mobile search, Yahoo Go, and Google Maps are great starting points. It's so nice to be able to find answers or driving directions on the go. You may also come to love getting Twitter or FriendFeed updates on your phone -- no matter where you are, the people you love are right there with you.

That's not such a bad thing, eh? Especially with no hidden charges or fees.

So what's holding you back? Jump on in to the m class. It's fun - you'll see. Before you know it, you'll be buying stuff from your phone, wondering how you lived without that option..
