Okay. That got my attention. GCI is offering a free “Android” phone like my HTC Hero when you sign up for a two-year unlimited plan and smartphone package. Heck, that’s easy, ’cause you should have both of those plans anyway. Unlimited is a great way to go–and why have a smart phone if you don’t have the data package? Huh?

I <heart> my HTC “Hero” Android phone. Camera. Phone. Music player. Call.  Email. IM. Twitter. Facebook. Oh yeah….it’s all there. I could say “get Appy” and all that. But I really don’t know how to use half of the “apps” on my phone as it is. Sheesh.

But here’s the kicker: 5,000 bonus Alaska Airlines miles. That’s a nice bonus for getting a cell phone. To get the deal, visit one of GCI’s stores in Anchorage, Fairbanks, Homer, Juneau, Kenai, Kodiak, the Mat-Su valley, Seward or Sitka. This GREAT deal is not yet on the GCI website. So stop into the retail store to sign up!

Remember–the unlimited plans also allow up to four partner lines. That means the whole family can jump on the “unlimited” train.

It’s insane–but the kids now text-message me from their bedrooms while we’re sitting upstairs in the kitchen.  Smartphone, indeed. Rather than text them a nice message to take out the garbage, it’s still easier for me to walk into the other room and stomp on the ceiling. Cathartic, really.
