Re: dan@sprint.com response I got

My thing is it's not just $10 for me. I have a 4 line family plan (all smartphones, and everyone looking forward to the Evo) so it will be $40 extra for me.

And I'm not even in a 4G area, so I won't see those faster speeds. I'll be using the exact same amount of data that I currently use on my Touch Pro 2. So why should my bill go up by a whopping $40 per month? Especially after the CEO said it was cheaper to provide a gig over 4G that a gig over 3G, and then said it would not cost any extra.

Of course I'm pissed about it. They get my hopes up, have me salivating over it for several months, and then BOOM- sorry we lied, but it will cost you $40 per month extra, even though we don't even have 4G in your area yet.

It blows my mind that there are actually people saying I shouldn't be upset by this. My dad used to always tell me, "A fool and his money will soon part ways." As willing as people are to bend over on this forum, I have to think I'm swimming in a pond of fools.

Way to set a precedent though. If Sprint is successful with this, you can bet they be bending you over every chance they get.

Another thing- they should kill that $10 fee. To make up for it they could also kill Sprint Navigation, Sprint TV, Nascar, NFL Mobile, and Sprint Radio. And if anyone wants to use those, they can pay $10 extra.
