I was looking at the Omnia for my daughter, but when I went to Verizon they said I had to also buy the $30/month data plan. Since at this point she'd only use the functionality of the phone and the texting, I was wondering if there are any unlocked images would allow the phone to work on Verizon without having to purchase the data plan. Are other carriers doing this too (requiring a data plan for a phone even if you're not going to use it)?
