The positive review is raises a LOT of questions... How does a product, that is pictured as a Net10 device work with verizon cards that are only $15?

I do not know. I have the Net10 Home package and absolutely love it. We are on an automatic billing cycle

This is a Net 10 device and sevice is offered through Net 10. I am not sure how Verizon cards work with this device.

Net10 does not have their own microwave towers; they pair up with Verizon and use their towers, so you are getting the quality of Verizon at a much lower price because Net10 doesn't have all the overhead fees. And, no, I am not affiliated with Net10 in any way. You can visit their home page to see how their operation works.

NET10 devices will only work with NET10 Cards. You can get these cards at Target and Radioshack at $17.99 and $34.99 (international).

What I want to know is, after reading these reviews both good and bad, I am wavering about whether I should keep my Striiv. How is the company going to support me if and when the devices freezes, stops working altogether etc. I am a citizen on a fixed income and really bought this device at great sacrifice to myself. I would appreciate an answer ASAp

I had a similar experience. I reported it to NetTalk customer service several times and they never did get back to me. Searching the internet I learned that the 12 month subscription is only included with devices purchased directly from NetTalk or from one of their authorized sellers which evidently doesn't include the Amazon seller(s) that you and I bought our devices from. Unfortunately I learned all of that after the Amazon window for returns closed so I was stuck with it. To make matters worse I had paid them $19.99 to port my phone number and they used the credit card information from that transaction for an automatic renewal after 60 days. I reported that to customer service as well and never heard back from them. I explained all of this to Amazon customer service so that they could correct the information on this listing but nothing came of that either. Return the device to Amazon right away and look into the other alternatives. I got an Obi202 here which has given me free service with Google Voice however that is ending in March so I need to look for another VoIP provider. (Unlike NetTalk and MagicJack the OBi devices are unlocked so you can use them with other providers.) The Ooma devices look very promising- Amazon is selling them for $115 and there is a monthly charge of $3 to $5 to cover govt fees for the calls. http://www.amazon.com/Ooma-Telo-Free-Phone-Service/dp/B002O3W4LE BTW with the NetTalk there was a 3-4 second delay between what was spoken on one end and what was heard on the other. You had to talk real s-l-o-o-o-w to avoid utter confusion. I had never noticed that with the MagicJack+ I had used for a year (I thought that was the absolute bottom of the barrel but I learned otherwise. :-( )

It is a pay as you go phone specifically with Net10....you can also have a monthly plan with them.

None... The device ships empty. You need to buy your own. Furthermore, the product is junk. Out of the box it did not work for me. I ended up getting a Netgear, I paid a little more like $10, but it was worth it.

Sorry, I will not be much use to you. I went to AndroidforNook.com and bought a card from them. It installed easily but I was not impressed with the additional flexibility which it gave me and I figured that you cannot do things on the cheap. Use it as a reader and save your pennies to get a different machine if you want to do perform more sophisticated functions.Apologies for inadequacy of my response

I agree it works well even with 4GB card. When I use external card reader to upload pics to the card and then I plug the card to the frame itself. Its weird that whan I use 2GB CF card I can upload pics via cable PC-FRAME but when I use SD card I have to use external reader.Anyway looks like it way to go by now. I also dont feel secure to update to the firmware that is older than what I curently have and hope that upcoming 10" model wont have such issues.Thanx for reply.

Sorry Siffert but that isn't true. I have an ATT Fusion (posted up a review on there also) Which all I did was add a 100$ card to it. I chose the option to not have a data package. I use wifi @ home and use grooveip to make/receive free callsIm not sure if this phone is "banned" from doing the same thing but the fusion 100% works. I have 2 of them actually with this same setup

It didn't work with my verizon iPhone. :/ So Net10 maybe only deals w/AT&T.; It definitely didn't work w/my verizon phone.

If Net10 uses a SIM card GSM phone, then with this being an unlocked phone, it will work. If it doesn't utilize GSM technology and uses CDMA like sprint, then it won't work.

It is unlocked and can be used with at@t phone service Not Verizon. If it were locked you could only use it with the specific company it was locked to. Also it will not work with net 10. But if you have an at@t sim card you can pop it in and it will work

The only answer I can give you is to call a Net10 provider, which is either AT&T; or Verizon or visit their websites. I think you can use whichever prepaid card of your choosing, but please get a hold of the providers to made sure.

Nothing I can think of. I usually tether my phone with this card or vice versa without any problems. I am able to connect other devices to do other things besides internet connection without any problems.

Answer here...Hello, I have Net10 prepaid plan and have no problems with service or features on the phone.

from time to time it offers me the opportunity to connect to Verizon. I presume that indicates that there is a Verizon SIM card or equivalent inside the machine. But I only use it for surfing on wifi. I am too cheap to pay for a Verizon connection.

I ordered one for someone else. He took it to his local Verizon store (may have been franchise store, not sure) and they managed to set it up for him after calling someone and working with it for about an hour. It was in a small town; not everyone at cell phone stores is as helpful. Other option was new 4G card with higher cost, but no 4G was available in that area.
