Pretty sure. SeroP (non-4g) is already $40. So, that's supposed to be the $30 Sero + $10 smartphone charge.

Re: Sprint forcing premium data on ALL SMARTPHONES

but where will it end? what are you willing to pay when the next speed comes out? sprint tested this with the evo and epic people, they still bought the phones, now it's all smartphones. next, it'll be the entire line-up. the only way to combat this is not upgrade or cancel. sprint is going to lose people anyways when the iphone goes to verizon, now they want to push the remaining people out.

So you're going to pay more for the same service with the other bozos?

Wait, you just said your hd7 isn't hdspa+ only 3g. So how does it pull 18-21 mbps? Did T-Mo hire David Blain as well?

Re: Sprint forcing premium data on ALL SMARTPHONES

I pay less for tmobile now than I do with sprint, and with faster data!

I think t-mo has hdspa+ where I live now, but I don't know anyone that has them to check what the speed is. For me though the price would double. I pay $30/month and isn't tmo $80/month or $60/month unsubsidized??
