according to this it looks like not only are we going to be charged extra for the mobile hotspot, but we may have to move to yet another new plan to have the EVO.

You have always had to pay for the "hot Spot" feature. As for plans if your on an everything data plan youll be alright.

Yea it makes sense to charge for the "hot spot" feature... not in regards to the regular pricing phone plans I smell something fishy. I think there will be an additional charge somehow/someway to get the EVO. There is a reason Sprint is keeping tight lock on any info about pricing plans.

Sprint can't afford to make an ass out of themselve while pissing off alot of potential evo owners with some last minute scheme to make a quick buck, sorry. The hot spot feature I understand but anything else shouldn't change.

The only plan changes i have seen are how if you have the everything plan you can now add an aircard for only 49.99

Like I said, it would be crazy for Sprint charge more for a 4G EVO plan. According to them 4g is a hell of alot cheaper to maintain than 3g so why charge even more? And how is raising prices gonna attract customers? Besides Dan Hesse himself said that 4g won't cost anymore than your standard 3g service that you have now. So again I can understand special pricing for the 4g hotspot but thats really about it.

Wow, that screenshot is pretty disappointing. If sprint tries to raise prices for the Evo, I will likely move to T-Mobile as soon as they release an HSPA+ phone. Hopefully they have something that competes with the Evo soon, and has a keyboard.
