After getting a couple bills from sprint with data charges on them, I called and asked why I was being charged for data when I don't use it. They were actually able to tell me the time and date - but noth the content - of what was accessed. At 3:am, I am sound asleep so I wasn't using data for anything..but, my SPB mobile shell was going after tha daile weather forecast.

Anyway, this may actually answer your question for you, I just asked sprint to disable all data services on the phone except wifi. I still get the evdo icon but I do not have anymore unwanted data connections. And, I can still use wifi all I want.

Occasionally, my phone does try to dial 777 - usually when one of my gps programs connects but I just have to disable the "service not available" notification and I'm fine.

I know my problem applies to sprint, but surely Verizon can do that for you too.
