Aside from the lame marketing pitch 'dont call us a phone company' I love Helio. Really cool features, and good plans if you like loaded features and don't want to shell out the extra charges Sprint, ATT, T-Mobile like to charge. ANYONE else here have it? Thats the only problem with using Helio, only one person I know uses them besides me.

Rob what? He's posting about Helio and asking if anyone likes them. That's what a forum is.

I don't need features in a phone besides the ability to call. Hell, 80% of the time I don't even carry a phone on me.

I've heard nothing but bad things about Helio and their phones.

Whatever you're paying per month? Yeah. I'm paying half it. You're paying the charges for all those additional features up front. I only pay for them if I use them. Their per month charges strike me as utterly outrageous considering what they offer. Doesn't seem any better than something on another carrier.

Wasn't Helio that planet-controlling supercomputer in Deus Ex? That seems like reason enough not to use their service...

From wikipedia;
Helio, as it was to be called, would market itself to the younger demographic, promoting itself using the latest in cutting-edge handset technology.

Yep.

Yes. Yes it was. And yes. Yes it is.
