Hi Rich,

Thanks for posting.

So i ended up doing just what i did not want to do, and i'm back in Android
land.  My reason is because the network provider, Mint, offered 3 months at
$15/month, at least as a teaser, and they sold me some screen phone with
android for about $60.

The deal with Mint is they require phones which are "4G LTE and VoLTE
friendly".

So i think my search should have been for the right network, which can
support the kind of device i want (namely, something as close to the free
world as possible).

So next time i search, i hope to do it more intelligently.
