Monthly fee's for PPCs?

I am considering buying an X50v, but then i heard that for a PPC you have to pay monthly fees (i am not talking about down payments, i am talking about buying a ppc, but then ALSO being charged monthly fees even if it isnt a phone).

how much is it for the x50v, i didnt see on the Dell page

If you own a PPC, you don't pay monthly charges on it.

And we sincerely hope they aren't charging you monthly for that either.

Lol, dammit i knew it. They were trying to convince me "you shouldnt get a PPC unless you can afford the $300 to buy it and then paying fees for it every month...and i kept telling him "thats only because yours is a cell phone so you pay for Cingular internet service/calling time", then comes "NO IM TELLING YOU THAT EVERY PPC HAS TO BE PAID FOR MONTHLY"`

It may lead to other expenditures... data plan on the cell phone, accessories, software... but the PPC does not cost just by itself.

Think of it like going on a cruise, they tell you everything is included, but after drinks, taking some tours and of course all those bonus items, you find you doubled the cost at the very least.

But as others have said, you don't need to tip.

I think they are mistaking playing with your "Palm" in public will cost you a lot of money monthly.

Maybe you're thinking about financing the axim?? Where you can't afford to pay it off all at once, you make monthly payments until after a cerftain number of months you'll own it?

You do not need phone/data service so there is NO monthly cost.

wait...so you're telling me that all those required paypal payments I've been sending to "lisa_dell_sales@xxx.com" weren't legit?? They're going to get a piece of my mind! Just as soon as I get through filling out this update form for my bank...I wonder why they need me to keep emailing them my username and password though, you'd think they would be able to keep track of it...oh well [send].
