I can't see them charging $10 add-on on this phone in 3 years cause it will not be that cool anymore. All speculation of course.

At the same time Hesse said there wouldn't be a 4G fee, he also said they would be going away from unlimited data plans in 2 years and moving towards data bucket plans.
So you're right that this fee will probably be gone in 3 years. Unfortunately, it will be even worse at that time.
