Should i get a Smart Talk or Verizon cell phone?

My mom says that she will buy me a cell phone but i have to pay the bill.
If i get a phone from verizon, she’ll add me to her plot, and i’ll have to share minutes with her, and i can get 5000 texts (which will be plenty for me), with no web/data all for $ 35-$ 40 a month.
If i get a Smart Talk phone i can have unlimited everything (mins, text, and web/data) for $ 45 a month.
But is Smart Talk a excellent phone service? Do they have service in a lot of seats like Verizon does? is it worth the extra $ 10?

…Because One is Not Enough

Ok I have to laugh.. I rarely get phone calls and I despise talking on the phone and here I am walking around with 3 mobile phones, smart phones.. or cell phones which ever term you prefer..

The iPhone is my personal phone and I like it for Internet relations.. I like it less it as a voice phone.. but nothing beats it for connecting to the world. I basically sleep with it.. Flickr, Twitter, Facebook, Airliners.net, Yulaviation .com all at the touch of an icon.. though with the 4G software on this 3G model it sucks.. it can be as slow as an ancient PC at times.

The Nokia is my work phone. I work for a European company and I finished up with a Nokia E72 which is a European only model that finished up here in Canada for me.. doubtless the best quality phone of the lot but designed for the European mind. I find it confusing and you seem to have to click a million times to get somewhere.. Though it comes with a 5MP camera and two way video calling… something only now being introduced in North America.. and that 1990s interface…egads.

The Blackberry Bold is a test phone I’m trying out for work. We’ve been pushing our loath European colleagues to get Blackberrys for being and they finally caved into our strong armed tactics.. LOL.. ok my bosses basically made them do it. For business this is the winner for me.. logically North American and a excellent solid device compared to the crap HTC phones my American colleagues are by.. they can’t wait to get a hold of one of these..

With smart talk can I see a billing summary like I can on AT&T wireless? Like see the outgoing and incoming calls and texts on the website?
