Sprint is intentionally being vague lol.
Man thats exactly how I feel. What makes it worse is how some people, not just here but other forums try to swear that this is not for 4g or try to also come up with some foolish excuse.

I hear the Iphone needs a standard ATT unlimited data plan. Well lets go down the list of phones on Sprint that require a ED plan even though you might not need unlimited text, but hey, you got to pay for it anyway (the Sprint way of life now a days)

-Instinct
-Pre
-Instinct s30
-Hero
-Moment
-Instinct hd

They are all phones that need unlimited plans, cool I fully understand that. Now tell me why Sprint's EVERYTHING DATA, not almost everything but EVERYTHING DATA plans wont work on a data heavy, bandwidth consuming, 4g, how every you want to spin it, phone?

Oh yea, its not for the richer data experience that is stated on Sprint's site, its so they can subsidize the phone for all that are able to get it for the $199 price and so the people that have now choice but to buy it at full price can also get it for &19.... oh wait, they cant get it at that price. To hell with it, let them also pay that fee just so they dont feel left out.

In all honesty, I hope if this charge sticks, than I really hope Sprint starts charging $20 extra once 1.3ghz or 1.5ghz dual core chips come out because its dual core and even faster right?
