I agree that you should not have to switch plans. I don't work for Sprint and I most definitely think that the SERO plan was a steal (the old one). But I have to say that most of the time they have given me a pretty good deal on the phones. I had a pretty bad run in with retentions over some crap they pulled about my plan and I almost dropped them, but man I hate ATT and all the others so much that I couldn't do it.
I hear ya.
About a year ago, I spent over 100 hours cumulatively on the phone with Sprint clearing up numerous and repetitive billing errors and unauthorized plan changes.
I must say that Sprint's Customer Service has improved over the past year.
If I switched plans, it would cost me approximately $750.00 more than what I am paying now, over a 2 year period.
In addition or rather subtraction, I would lose 500 monthly AT minutes, free roaming, pick 3 and my nights and weekends would start 2 hours later
Now let me think if I would switch.....No.
Btw, you said the following in your previous post >

"They dont care if some people switch to a Razr or a Katana as long as the people on winmo bb's and the hero wll be paying in more."

Just to clarify, the WinMo devices don't require a special plan
