+Cell Provider Comparison
+========================

+A few years ago, I was researching cell phone providers, and noticed a distinct
+lack of _real_ information for an accurate comparison. It seems that everyone's
+monthly rates are comprised of different numbers; they charge up front for the
+phones, or they don't, or they kind of do; all of the devices cost different
+amounts between the different providers; etc. The only real number that was of
+any use, was calculating the total 24 month cost (the duration of a contract,
+whether they say they have them or not), since in the end that's what really
+mattered.  Consequently, I decided to build myself a spreadsheet containing all
+of this information in an attempt to gather it all in one useful place.

+A few Preliminary Notes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+* The information in this spreadsheet _should_ be accurate as of
+  **2014.12.22**.
+
+* The T-Mobile "Monthly Cost (no phone)" cell is accurate up to three
+  phones because I haven't written the logic into the cell to handle more than
+  that.
+
+* Each cell who's value isn't immediately obvious most likely has a
+  comment. Please hover over the cell to see each comment for more information.
+
+* Each of the values that has something to do with a phone compares the
+  LG G3 where possible for as accurate a comparison as possible.
