yes the phone will work. I would go with straight talk. you can bring your own phone get unlimited text talk and data for $50 with taxes. The question about apps you'll just have to try them. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Troy Burnham" <troyburnham34@xxxxxxxxx>

I joined this and one other Android list yesterday and one of the messages I saw after I joined seemed to indicate that Nexus phones may not be produced for much longer; maybe this is a stupid question but the Nexus phones that are still being used will still work even if no newer versions are made won't they? I just want to be sure since it's a Nexus phone that I bought.
Regarding apps, is there any way to tell if they're going to be accessible before I download and install them, and what determines if an app is accessible? This may also be a strange question but not only have I never had any kind of cell phone of my own, I've also never had the chance to even handle one to see how it works.
The phone I'm getting doesn't come with a contract of any kind, and I mainly want the phone for the apps but does anybody have any suggestions on what carrier I should try when I do get a contract? Keep in mind that I likely won't be making many calls or sending many texts, so other than maybe using some of the apps on the phone when I'm out I will need as low-cost of a contract that I can get, and I'd actually like to just go buy gift cards with money on them that I can load onto the phone if that's possible.
I've been promised all the free tech support I'll need to get familiar with the phone when I get it, so this is all of my questions for now but I'm sure there will be many more later on.
