True. I still use my TP2 with a shared Fair & Flexible plan. But if you want a Pre, Pixi, Instinct, or Hero, the system won't even activate the phones unless you have an everything plan.

I've done a ton of research on this because I tried to exchange my TP2 for a Hero and they said I was SOL and all online discussion said the same as well. I'm going to laugh when someone files suit against Sprint for trying to force grandfathered plans out. Eventually all of their phones will be that way, so I wonder what they're planning on doing when someone wants a new phone or is forced to upgrade their phone and they can't activate it unless they change plans.
