Wouldn't be really interesting if every body should follow eco-friendly devices and keeps environment clean.Let's make one thing clear before we go ahead for cellphone.It should not be more difficult and stressful, while compare wireless copmanies we should take into account the types of network either local network or nationwide availability network that we are going to be used.Customers doesn't like low battery backup ,small screen and especially slow devices . We all guys should aware about social conscious and eco-friendly cell phone devices.Thanks........
