Once it ran over $130 total, which ticked me off. So the $99 (+$10) plan actually makes a lot of sense for me, since it has unlimited minutes, and is a better deal than the $99 SERO plan. My wife will do alright on the cheapest acceptable plan (450 minutes, I think, and mobile-to-mobile all free), for about $69 (+$10). So her bill will actually take more of a hit (and she really only needed the $30 SERO plan, but she's WORTH IT. It's time she quit getting all my hand-me-downs lol, and giving her the TP2 would be a cruel joke. She'd rather keep the Mogul, after seeing the issues I've been having
nowhere in here am i talking about pricing, plans, or anything relative to that topic though.. i have stated though in lots of other threads(after my first 2 or 3 days of distain of course lol) i have tons of discounts and such, that it wont matter to me...

doesnt mean i dont understand the masses beef with it either though.. as i clearly pointed out in post 11, sprint is offering very little (4G aside) that another device doesnt already in the form of features, specs,and capabilities..

lets talk about what EVO actually has, thats others dont(4G aside):

HDMIOut: cool.. i know most of my friends dont even have a HDTV, so i wont be showing things off at their houses.. and you found out it doesnt double as TVOut already.. which was kind of a turn off for you.. $10 charge is for "rich data experience" you using any data when your playing back that 720p vid you recorded on EVO on your TV, i think not.. so that feature should be a factor in paying extra

Bigger Screen: read post 11, again, its really not a giant leap forward or anything and its not AMOLED anyways so they botched its true beauty and capability anyways..

720p vid: again, mention in post 11... and besides 720p is the lowest HD quality avilable.. if you think HD doesnt look good on a 60GHZ TV, how do you really think its gonna look on a phone? just a bit cleaner is all..

any of those 3 have anything relativey to a "richer data experience".. nope...

what did we leave out? 4G, guess thats where they assume a "richer experience" comes from then.. since every feature, spec, is avilable elsewhere and the few things EVO does have others dont, doesnt have anything relative to a "premium data add-on"..

so yeah, though ive been over it for some time... i still have no problem understanding and even somewhat supporting still, the massess that seem to havean issue with the whole thing...
