I doubt vz will hurt themselves one bit by requiring a minimum data plan in this day & age as most PPC users will want that functionality anyway. I know hundreds of PPC users & I can't think of a one that doesn't have at least a minumum data plan.

You're right, about the time-period "nowadays".
My original post should say "old" instead of "veteran". When I first owned a PDA, all I needed was Excel in my pocket (still do) for mobile spreadsheet computations when doing testing at my job. It seems since the iPhone craze has struck, mobile web is the only thing people use a PPC for anymore.
HOWEVER... VZW is spitting on us old folk for years or faithfull service by forcing a plan we don't need. (I should also mention I have wifi at work and at home, just in case I HAVE to get online.)
Speaking of online convenience, has anyone seen that iPhone commercial with the software that picks where to eat for you by shaking the device to randomly roll through the choices. Our phones thinking for us. Awesome.
