Re: I've never had issues You may want to call Sprint about the all inclusive plans. I have myself, my wife and my father in law on my plan. We have a regular plan with 2 $30 add ons for my wife and I to have Internet access. My father in laws phone is a $10 add on to the plan.
I just upgraded to a Pro2 and was able to keep the same plan. |

You can have $30 data add-ons with WinMo phones but Palm Pre and Android phones require to get Everything Plans because these phones have Visual Voicemail. Way to go Sprint  . I would like to get HTC Hero and am willing to fork over extra $30/month for data add-on but my wife does not need it and thus Sprint is not getting squat from me.

The Palm Pre, HTC Hero, all three Instinct models, and upcoming android phones won't activate with the add-on data at all (restricted).
Technically the Pro 2 and the blackberry can activate with add-on data packs, but the reps are trained to tell you that they can't so that you'll upgrade to the more expensive plans (or cancel, but I don't know if they thought about that  ). |

Why wouldn't Sprint let activate those phones with $30 data add-on like AT&T or VZW do? Why is it restricted? Why force your customers to plans that they may not want or need?
I let my wallet speak on that issue. If Sprint does not give me a choice I won't give them extra $30/month. Their loss.
On top of that their selection of phones pales in comparison to Verizon's. HTC Imagio is one nice phone. Verizon Droid phone will blow Sprint Android phones out of the water. And VZW HTC Droid Eris (Hero) is cheaper than Sprint's Hero by almost $100.
