the CS girl told me her notes say to tell me to think of it as paying for first class on an airplane. i need to pay $10 a month to "access the fast processor". i laughed and said good day.

I just went to AT&T's site just for kicks and saw that the Data plan price for the iPhone and it's $30.00, so Sprint charging $10 more is not that bad.
