Yeah, about that. Sprint seems to be very fond of their everything data plans, prices them less than everyone else, and their coverage is oh 100x better than AT&T. I'm cool. I pre-ordered the EVO yesterday, comes in on the 9th. Can't wait.

It helps that my employer pays for my cell phone bill too.....

Must be nice Matt...lol. Im happy with my smartphone plan. US cellular gets great coverage for me and the internet is really fast especially if I use opera mini. but i do use alot of data, so I hope they dont go this route too!

Doesn't seem like that bad of a deal to me. This alone would make me consider an iphone but i think I'm still gonna hold out for something with android. You just cant beat the Verizon service.

though i will agree with you that sprint has better plans than the others, be carefull with that so called "unlimited" anything plan. if you do happen to got over a certain MB limit they severely limit the download speed to the point of nearly disabling it all together. My wife used to sell sprint and she said its common practice and ive got a friend thats had that happen to him a few times, so its not really unlimited like they claim. I dont really like the verizon data plan but verizon/ alltel has by far the best phone and 3G coverage on my side of the state so its the obvious choice for me. ATT sucks around here and sprint is even worse.

I heard that but i will believe it when i see it. Plus After playing with the Droid it is by far a better phone IMO much more customizable to the user and that's what I like. I am kinda bored with the iphones and i have never even had one lol they all look the same.

My cell bill for two blackberries is $156 a month. Sara and I split that down the middle fo a grand total of $78. I have unlimited everything except for pic messaging. I'm extremely happy with that especially since I don't have home internet. I can do everything I need to do on a computer on my blackberry. US Cellular gets great service in these mountains and I couldn't ask for better. I've had AT&T and disliked it.

thats been a rumor for some time now. im not sure how long apple is under contract with AT&T but if/ when verizon gets it it could put a hurt on AT&T for sure. i dont know how many people with iphones ive heard say they would switch to verizon in a heartbeat if they had the iphone.

I see the commercials for ATT and they say they cover 94% of the people in the country.................that is of course they mean the major metro areas where 94% of the population of the country lives.......they suck for most rural areas.

AT&T has always been lagging behind in their coverage and 3G buildout. So they use creative advertising like that to trick people. They show a map where you AT&T phone might work... even if it is analog roaming with no data.
