[Hidden-tech] Hidden-tech] replacing Moto G (Droid) battery

[Shel Horowitz]

Have to say that Nexus/Google plan looks good! At the moment I think it
would be hard to extricate ourselves from the three-phone plan we have
through Consumer Cellular, which has been a pleasure to work with except
that they don't do international. My son replaced his phone not very long
ago.

Still, it's worth talking about. How's their service in rural Western Mass?
