So, you didn't have to buy a new Verizon data plan. I have the Alltel smartchoice plan with unlimited data and text, and 2 Verizon CSRs were insistant on me also paying an additional $29.99 month for data, which I already had.

Well...I did it today. I ended up getting more minutes, losing 5 F&F, and spending $.01 less a month. Still have an Alltel plan and have been assured that I can switch back if I so choose.
