And if you REALLY only want it for emergencies, (eg 911 calls ONLY), then
don't sign up on any service at all.  No monthly service charges, but instant
911 access at your fingertips.  This service must be provided free by all 
cellular providers, but they'd rather you not know this.  Many people want
only 911 access, but don't know it is free, so they sign up for one of 
the plans.
