"Do nicer phone models appearing on prepaid carriers entice you to switch to prepaid?"

Jackson Henney I spent $180 on a second-hand HD7. Still works just fine, just cosmetics that are different. I use it on Prepaid, on Optus "2 Dollar Days" meaning I am constantly tethering it, and using internet, unlimited for 2 dollars a day. To put it simply, I've downloaded about 150GB from that plan in the last 3 months :P Seeing as I live in Wagga, I don't get too good reception and landline wasn't an option; pre-paid is perfect!
