If you go into the email setup and remove your email accounts or even disable auto send/recieve then there would be no reason for your device to be connecting or using data. It would then not connect automatically. It will however connect if you try to check email or open a web browser or use gps or use any other app that requires a data connection. So if you disable email and don't use any of those apps then basically no data.I'm curious why you got this device if you planned on not using the data connection. Seems like you should just get a regular phone and not a pocket pc. On Sprint unlimited data is just $15 a month. But, if you do as I described you will essentially turn off data.
