Pre Paid Cellular Customers Increasing

From ArsTechnica:

New industry data released in May shows American mobile phone operators have been hit with thefirst-ever net decline in contract (“postpaid”) subscriptions, a loss of 52,000 subscribers. And the number of non-contract (“prepaid”) mobile customers has reached record levels—now accounting for about 25 percent of all mobile phone users in America.

Considering that it can often be far cheaper to go with a prepaid company for your mobile cell phone, and selection of phones is getting better on these carriers, I can understand why this is happening.

Has anyone made a jump from post paid to pre paid provider? Are you satisfied with the switch?
