Is there an android and a plan just for internet surfing? I rarely talk, text even less often, want to do the google till the cows come home.
Looking at original Android. Thx.
Good idea. A netbook is still a little too large for me to pack it on my person daily.
However, I want a pocket-sized broadband web access tool. Small footprint, quick surfing, easy to use.
Verizon offers data/messaging only plans but it says you need documentation for being deaf or hard of hearing. 54.99 for smartphones http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/splash/messagingplans.jsp

Hm I am thinking, ever consider the ipod touch? You can use that to surf the web and even text message. My friend has one & loves it
dell has a 5" touch pad coming out soon, with android software on it
Thank you everyone for the replies. Very helpful. This is a terrific forum.
I'm pretty well bound to using Verizon, the only carrier to supply consistently usable service to my rural home.
The new Android2, with its own hotspot for up to 5 wireless devices ($20/month for this feature) attracts me. I can only get dialup here and this would probably be better. I need to try this feature.
I was going to buy Android2 from wirefly but couldn't see how to bring my landline phone number onto it... The Verizon site has this feature, however.
The new 6x3 Dell tablet/phone/android OS looks good. If only AT&T service worked at my homestead.
