Curious what options I have.

Im currently on the Sprint SERO plan, using an HTC Mogul. I love the phone, and love the price (30 a month) but recently sprint has been adding on insane random charges (the most recent being a $60 bogus roaming charge) and refusing to remove them, and suddenly renewing my contract for added years.

I have no problem calling and screaming and getting off my contract...

My question is, Is there another carrier with low prices and that offers a good pocket pc phone comparable to the mogul? I want to switch, but I dont want to pay a lot more or end up with a crappy phone. With unlocking, and gsm and all of the other things I know nothing about.. Im honestly not sure what my options are. I have no problems, unlocking to get phones on carriers or whatevers needed
Thank you for any advice, and I'm sorry if this is in the wrong section, I Looked over them but didnt see anything close, but may of missed something.

Re: Curious what options I have.

You won't find a carrier with better phones, better speeds, or better price.

Simply Everything 450: Unlimited Everything with 450 anytime minutes and Night/Weekends starting at 7pm. All for 69.99 a month.

No other provider can compete with that unfortantley;

Verizon cripples their phones, and for the same plan with 9pm free nights is about 80 bucks. Same price for Altell.

ATT forces you to get a PDA package for any PDA or PPC so it gets bumped up to a 90 dollar plan if you want unlimited text messages.

T-Mobile...charges for in network calling....still mostly Edge speeds....and I guess wouldn't...also more expensive for less.

Ditch the sero if its a problem, get a Touch Pro soon, and be happy you have an amazing phone with unbeatable prices.

Re: Curious what options I have.

Historically, Sprint has struggled to keep up in the device department. AT&T has typically put out devices earlier. Also, it's hard to beat TMobile's G1. As for the price, you just can't beat Sprint.
