My dilemma

Today I broke my cell phone.  It fell out of my hand as I flipped it open (the RAZRs open with such force after all,) and crashed to the ground.  I have the extended warranty on it but they won't cover the damage inflicted to it via ground collision.

Now I have no way to reach anybody other than the internet.  Perhaps I'll start using skype and my notebook can function as a giant cell phone.

My dilemma is what to do next.  About 3 weeks ago I decided I wanted to cancel my plan with Bell and switch to Fido.  At that time, Fido offered me a really sweet deal ($17.50/month for 200 minutes, free evenings & weekends @ 5pm) and Bell offered me a counter deal ($35/month for 200 mins, evenings & weekends @ 6pm, and system access fee included, and a $200 phone credit toward a new phone.) Now Fido has reneged on their offer and I'm pissed.

I don't want to renew my contract with Bell.  My last few bills have been insanely large and their customer service and website are really crappy.  But I don't want to pay $220 to cancel my contract and move to Fido if they're not willing to offer me anything half-decent.

Stupid Goddamn cell phone.  Why did I drop it.
