Hopefully all these premium plans that are 'required' will fade away with Google Voice catching on. I too am on SERO, and if they force me to get a different plan for the Hero I'll simply get another line while keeping my SERO plan intact (another line meaning - iPhone on AT&T or myTouch on T-mobile, etc).

I wonder if other providers (sprint, t-mo, verizon) will follow suit on AT&T's ban of GV on the iPhone? Or if we will see more affordable "simply everything" plans, with unlimited minutes (meaning quite a bit less than the $100/month being charged now)?

When it comes to the newer plans, they suck for families.
Went over this till adnauseum sp? with the Sprint fanboys and girls a year and a half ago.
I pay $120 per month for over 10 years which is over $12,000 so no one is subsidizing me.
Btw, the ones that criticize the customers who want to save money are the same ones that look for bargains and sales when they make a purchase in stores, online, etc.
Hypocrisy up the wazoo.
Don't want to hijack this thread so those that feel that we as customers should try to pay the highest rates possible offered by Sprint, start a thread in the off topic forum and I'll add my 2 cents......I mean my $2

That article states sprint charges $60 for teathering? Is that for real? So to go along with thousands uploading to talking dogs to youtube and tweeting, do they have like 2 people "officially" teathering on the NOW Network?
