Maybe a cell phone?

I don't know if this link will work, but it is the reason I am thinking that I might possibly get a cell phone. There is a pay-as-you-go plan from Cingular that would charge me $1 per day on days that I use the phone. Then it would cost 10¢ a minute if the call were to/from a land line, but free from a mobile. So, if I only get calls from mobile phones (because I only give the number out to Courtney and my family with explanation), and I use it every day, then we have only spent $30, the same we would have spent on the family plan that I don't think I would really utilize. And on the days I don't use my cell phone at all, for instance when I am traveling abroad, etc., I won't get charged anything. This seems like a good deal to me. Anybody else have experience with this?
