   Bill Horne to All   
   I've been given a Google Pixel Fi phone.

   A kind neighbor has given me a used Google Pixel Fi phone, and I'd   
   appreciate your help to make use of it without spending too much.   
      
   Please answer these questions for me:   
      
    1. The phone is model G-2PW4100. Is this model able to work with 4G   
       service?   
    2. Google offers a "Low Cost" plan with "Unlimited talk and text,"   
       which they say is great if I can use WiFi a lot, but the $20 they   
       quote on the first page turns into "$20-$80" when it's time to give   
       them a credit card number. It turns out that they want to be paid by   
       the Gigabyte for data. Can I limit data use?   
    3. Verizon is the only reliable cellular carrier in my area. Does   
       Google use them? If not, which one?   
    4. Verizon has been offering a prepaid plan for $20/month. Can this   
       phone be used with that? I don't need data.   
    5. If someone gave this phone to you, what would you do with it?   
      
   Thanks for your help.
