If you want to use an "advanced smartphone" (which, to Sprint, includes anything with the Samsung Instink OS, Android OS, or webOS)... you MUST pay for data. For the most part, you've gotta get the $70/mo Everything Data plan.... but there are workarounds, like the data-only plan for $30/mo or applying a corporate discount of 20-28% to the $70 ED plan.
So, basically...
- you can switch to the data-only plan and make no phone calls whatsoever.
- you can apply a corp. discount (which now extends your contract length )
- you can remove the Pre from your line, swap to an old Centro/Treo (or whatever) and pay $40/mo for a Talk 450 plan... add free data... add $1 SMS code for 500 texts a month... all for a grand total of $41/mo, and it'll still include data... albeit on a ridiculously ancient mobile OS. And then use the Meta-Doctor to keep your Pre functioning as a GPS device, internet radio device, 3D gaming machine, mobile wifi browser, etcetera. See link in my sig for more info on Meta-Doctor...
