And the $5 increase wasn't for vision, it was for forced picmail, vision price stayed the same.

Again, not true. Most of the people getting the PPC 6700 (myself included) already had pic mail on our PPC 6600's. We bought the 6700, and were forced onto a more expensive plan, for a device that did not even have pic mail.

The price went up man. Spin it however you want, but the bottom line is Sprint raised our monthly bill when we bought the PPC-6700. And it wasn't because they added pic mail, lol. We were going from a device that actually had pic mail in the 6600, to a device that did not have pic mail in the 6700.

maybe i'm confused, $10 vision, $5 picmail, Powervision = $15 where is the price increase?

I don't know where the increase was. I can't remember the specifics about a plan from 4 years ago. All I know is my bill went up when I changed to the 6700, and so did just about everyone else (except the the lucky few who got to keep their old plan before Sprint trained all the reps).

Call it an increase in text messaging rates, whatever you want. But if the end result is you have to pay more, then it is still an increase iin the price.

And I had pic mail on the 6600, so there was more to it than that (even though the 6700 did not have pic mail).

While you guys are arguing P-Slim is correct! I got the Apache when it first came out and I was on plan where I got 4500 anytime minutes for like.....$40, plus with the add-ons I know my bill every month was like.....close to $70! It was a bad@$$ plan because I got everything Sprint had to offer service wise! Than I ended up getting a Mogul like.........2 years later or whatever! I saw the powervision stuff but was never forced to upgrade to any other plan! I had that same plan all the way up till I got this everything plan, me and the Wife got it when they had it for $99 and I just added a line for an additional $10 because I could do that! Than they came out with the everything family plan and forced us to switch to that......so we seperated the lines and each got the everything plan for $69 with discounts that make it much cheaper than the everything family!

Point is.............when I got my Mogul I didn't have to switch to anything......they added GPS to the Mogul...I got that free for 3 months.......they added the picturemail app (from HTC) and I was straight.......but never did I have to switch my plan!

Can't we all just get along? Perhaps agree to disagree, or even in the most recent light, agree to agree?

Then you definitely weren't walking around with your eyes open, because I am too big and too freaky to miss!

its funny people even arguing with me, i'm telling them i worked there and there was no price change, then they want to argue. if there was a price change you got added features. If every sprint vision customer was forced to pay $5 more there wouldve been havoc, but it was easy to explain to customers back then. But like rainfreak said lets just agree to disagree.

Yeah..............Sprint would have been on America's Most Hated list if that happened!
