This phone could be Free and I still would not be interested, unless they stop Requiring an Everything plan to use it. Not worth paying double what I pay now for a monthly plan that has the same features I have now!

The lowest everything plan is $69 450 minutes + unlimited everything else! I have an everything data family costing $129 a mo. i do not have this phone YET but plan to as soon as my current contract runs out!
The iPhone requires even more expensive plans! & if you didn't have an everything data plan this phone & over 50% of its purpose is useless! If you don't have a full everything data plan yo& have no use for those features you might as well stay with the basic phone!

How do you figure this? I have an HTC Diamond on the 450 plan with the $15 Power Vision(Unlimited data and internet) Same data thats included in the everything plan! I pay $43/month after company discount. Free 1000 txt messages when they raised rates and Free Pick 3 any network, essentially giving me unlimited minutes with Google Voice. I would gain absolutely nothing by switching to the 450 everything plan, except a Larger Monthly Bill.

All the new smart phones with Sprint require an everything plan except the WinMo phones. Cheaper plans are great, but WinMo is horrible. Plus the everything plans are a better deal than the other big carriers. I have a Pre and it's an awesome phone. I had a HTC Touch Pro before and my Pre has been worlds better.

You know what though? Seriously?
I wanted the iPhone but went to Sprint and got the Instinct instead. Now, the instinct as a whole blows and can't touch the iPhone. However the everything data plan from Sprint was worlds cheaper than ANY carrier offers. And i knew the Palm Pre was coming. So for me i choose Sprint because it was the cheapest everything plan on the market. If you HAVE to have a phone that forces you to pay for an everything plan you're a fool to not go with Sprint.
