I have a Palm Centro and am paying $29.95 a month for 5GB Data package. I use maybe a couple of Megabytes per month, so will I get to save some money or will I be lumped in with all the really smartphones ? -- Onsite Computer Support in Memphis »www.memphispcguy.com

If they follow AT&Ts data plan tiers then yes you will. Possibly 10-15 bucks a month? But shhhh..the folks on this site like to pretend that this is not good for anybody. -- Usenet Block Accounts | Unlimited Accounts
reply to MemphisPCGuy We won't know until pricing comes out. If VZW charges $5-10/GB then you would, but they'll likely be more comparable to ATT. They may still have a baseline charge with buckets of data rates after the baseline.
Sprint's EVO tax doesn't look so bad now... $10 for truly unlimited 3G/4G. Even if Sprint adds the 20GB cap mentioned, the others are far more restrictive at a higher price. Since Sprint has more 4x more 4G spectrum, they'll likely always have better caps.
reply to MemphisPCGuy You don't have 5GB cap on Verizon for a Phone it is unlimited. Now tethering and data cards do have a 5GB cap. Palm Centro is considered a smartphone so yes. Although they will be like AT&T and grandfather people.
