Go to the Boost Mobile "Pay as You Go Cell Phone Service Plan" page, scroll down to the "how does the pay as you go plan work?" section, and tap "maintaining your account":

Go to the Boost Mobile FAQ, locate the "learn how to reboost" section, tap the "learn more" button:

The minimum amount you can add to your Boost Mobile® account at any given time is $10 and the maximum is $100. When you see 'Re-Boost® for as low as $10' at a retailer, you can instantly add between $10 and $99 to your account at the register.

Note: When using Re-Boost® Cards specifically, the minimum amount you can add is $20 and the maximum is $50 (cards come in $20, $30 and $50 denominations).

Good question. You'll want to keep the same number, as that is the only way to keep the $54 on the account already. But the number is pretty cool. Area code is 617 (boston). Here's a number with the same structure as the number you'd buy:

617-775-5516

So it's 61-777-555-16. I think it's a cool number, anyway.

Bidding stops Wednesday at 10am Eastern.

I too have a Motorola i605, and it does work! This is what I posted on the HowardForums last year: "I was on vacation for two weeks earlier this year, and managed to get connected with the help of a Nextel phone and a Boost account. I answered company emails and surfed the net every day."

I didn't mention that I have it set up so that you can get free internet using just the phone's wap browser. No tablet needed. Works quite well to make a quick check of your gmail, although using skweezer plus Tear is the best way to make use of the slower connection speeds.

Bidding ends at 10am. Top bid so far is $45.50.

Actually I downloaded Opera Mini and used it to surf the net. For instructions visit HowardsForums.

Yes, but without a computer-to-phone cable, using the phone's stock browser is the only option.
