Mobile U

<p>Just wondering if many current students use Mobile U (described on the WFU tech page).
Thanks for your comments.</p>

<p>I think that the general consensus is that it's too expensive to try out. The only people I know who use it are people who live in Tech Quarters, and they get it either free or with a discount (I can't remember which). The rumor is that eventually Wake wants to give it to all the students like they do with our laptops, and most people are, I think, waiting for that. More of this past year's freshmen probably use it than any of the upperclassmen because I believe that an advertisement was sent to the students before the school year began. But for the upperclassmen, it was just too much hassle to switch phone plans, and then buy a $200 phone (which is the price I was quoted when I first heard about it two summers ago).</p>

<p>even in the 2010 class not many people use it. verizon is just a better provider than cingular at&t. it's not a better price than an equivalent phone from verizon (as far as i know)</p>

<p>I got it for free and I think its totally worth it. Email on the go is awesome.</p>
