Re: Why upgrading to an EVO when you're not in a 4G Market is a waste of money

I do feel though that Sprint probably should have waited to embark this $10 fee till they atleast they had a good amount of 4G tower live around the US. With only a dozen or so cities with 4G I feel they were a bit pre-mature in charging the customers. I would like to get your opinion on that too. I and many other also relize the $10 fee is not just for the 4G but for the pure kick ass of the phone...what it offers is more than any other network can muster right now...and that to me is worth the $10.

If you feel it's still a burden, then contact Sprint or go into your local store and see if the Rep can't help you out and give you a credit or something....worst case call retention and let them know your cituation...maybe cutting the $10 to $5. Just think, if you were on Verizon's network...to have Visual Voicemail thats $10 extra a month, VZ Navigator $10 extra a month....and for the Evo 4G which is in my opinion the best out there now...is much more of a bargin than 1 program that either speaks your voicemail without dialing, or getting turn by turn directions (sucky program btw).

Whats your thoughts? I think it's a great deal...compared to the competition.
For me, its not the price. Its just how it all went down. Told one thing, they then did another, and then they expect me to believe another lie. lost alot of respect for Sprint as a company. For others, they don't agree they dont get the full benefits of what other users are getting, yet they're paying the same fee. everyone is going to have their opinions, good or bad about the fee. hopefully soon there will be some sort of resolution so theres less fighting around here. (then again my constant sarcasm and intentional 'stirring of the pot' doesnt help )
