On top of that, I don't want sprint navigation, maps, tv, or any of that other nonsense and have never come CLOSE to using my 500 minutes, saying we "should" have to pay for it because the Pre is newer (even though my phone still costs $100 dollars more) is like saying even though you have a Ferrari, if you want the new Prius you should have to buy only alternative fuel to support new technology.

If someone can confirm this I'll probably be getting it, otherwise I guess I'll get another touch pro and just bite the bullet and pay any other company that's not Sprint for a new phone when my contract is finally over with these fools.

Re: PAlm Pre used with any Data PLAN?

Can anyone update on the status of if you can activate a pre with SERO?

Anyone tried it yet? I asked the guy at the sprint store and he said they didnt let you but he isnt sure if they switched since they can now buy them.

Sounds like bull****. AFX i highly doubt you can, which is ****ing crazy that sprint wants me to pay for a plan thats more expensive, and ith features 'i will never use along with less minutes than 'i currently have. Now I'm on another touch pro and I'm really just waiting until another carrier in the US has a solid unlimited data/ text messaging plan to jump ship from sprint at this point as none of the new phones coming out are that much better than the Iphone or G2 besides the Hero which at this point I won't get from Sprint on the simple basis that they are once again trying to pull some complete bull**** by making me pay for a downgraded plan.
