It doesn't run Windows Mobile, Palm, or iPhone OS.. But it's still considered a "Smart Phone" due to its' HTML browser (which if I get told that one more time, I'm gonna deck someone due to being a complete idiot). -- Bresnan 15M/1M\|MyWS[P4HT@4.01GHz,2GB RAM,2x1TB HDDs,Win7]\|WifeWS[P4@2.4GHz,1GB RAM,60GB HDD,Win7]\|Router[2xP3@1GHz,640MB RAM,18GB HDD,Allied Telesyn AT-2560FX,Kingston KNE100TX,2xDigital DE504,Compaq NC3131,iPro/1000DP,Blitz BWI715,Gentoo Linux]

Just regular phones. I am off contract with Verizon and no where is it mentioned if I get a new phone I have to get a data plan (or text plan for that matter). "Smart" phones require a data plan. Regular phones do not. Actually nearly ALL phones Verizon offers are consdiered "smart phones" if it can access the web you need a data plan. The reason why you and your wife weren't forced to get a data plan is because you got phones LAST year. This is a new requirement. And yes as long as you don't change your current plan you are grandfathered in. Change your plan in any way and if you have a phone that can access the web you WILL be required to get a data plan that starts out at $10 a month. Even if you never intened to use it.

Although we do not change the plan unless they can do a 450 minute plan instead of the 700 minute family plan. -- Brian "It drops into your stomach like a Abrams's tank.... driven by Rosanne Barr..."
