you want to purchase an env touch for what... just to text message... thats terrible... these new devices are made for internet... thats the way of the future. if all you want to do is text get a simple intensity or rival... they dont require data... so suck it up... pay the extra ten bucks and use the web... you cant sit here and say you dont use the web... and verizon will not lose customers... ive had all the carriers and no one can compete with verizon... verizon is by far the best out there... t-mobile = cheap = terrible network = not worth the savings = sprint is old and not going anywhere... att = copy cats to verizon and their network cant even handle all the iphones they have pushed out... verizon is the best!!!

suck it up
