Its only 4G! From what has been said so far (just go to youtube and see) there will be a charge to use the 4G hotspot program but there is no charge to use 4G to browse the web and all! Other than that what other plans would they have for this phone?!?!?!?!

Their Everything Plan is the best yet................and as stated before....."Its only 4G"..........so why would you need a whole new plan just to add 4G to it?! Just like the Hero and the Moment if you have a grandfather plan you're gonna have to upgrade.....but I would assume if you have a plan that has talk and data in it already than you should be good!

*taps mic* ATTENTION: UNTIL SPRINT OFFICIALLY RELEASES ANY PLAN INFORMATION OR OFFICIAL PRICING OF THE PHONE THEM SELVES, WE SHOULD ALL JUST SIT BACK AND NOT READ INTO ALL THIS!! *drops mic and walks off stage*

Wimax will not cost extra to use. The CEO flat-out said this at CTIA. This leak is confusing the Wimax Hotspot functionality with Wimax in general. Carriers don't charge more as the towers went from 1xRTT to EVDO nor did they charge extra when they started bumping up some markets to EVDO Rev. A. It would be stupid to charge extra for a new service that is only beginning to roll out.

I will gladly eat my words if Sprint goes back on their original word and makes that mistake but from every bit of inside info I have read or personally encountered, it is the hotspot that will be an addon while 4G is a bonus for now if you have it. As it gets more widespread they will begin transitioning people to an all-data plan and route voice over the 4G network but until then, there won't be a change in plans.

I would think if anything, when we get to that point and cell companies will rely on less on voice calls and more on voip, monthly bills will be even cheaper. By the time this is a reality, I would think that 4g (wimax & lte) will be cheaper to run and maintain.

Sprint is NOT known for outrageous prices. They are known for affordable plans.... I don't see them changing that philosophy; the last thing they need right now is to lose more customers.
So everyone saying how outrageously priced this phone will be needs to sit back and wait for the official announcement and I am sure that Sprint will shut a lot of people up once they do
