This data $hit is really annoying because a lot of us would rather use the Wi-Fi connection in our phones as it's almost free and a lot faster. Plus, some of us would rather use a real computer anyways to surf the internet. Paying $30 that won't be fully used is a waste! I guess that's why my occasional data use on Page Plus 20MB data is just perfect.

my wifi at work is slower than my sprint 3g evdo. but i see your point. i think that if you got the companies to do away with mandatory data plans, you'd see the phone subsidies go away as well.
by the way, I thought sprint did away with SERO (for new customers)?
