While dumping the alt.cellular.sprintpcs bit bucket, I heard Ron say:

Sprint already has the "Sprint Unlimited Access Pack", that includes
unlimited voice calling, text messages, Web browsing and email for
$119.99, available in a few areas. I'd expect to see something similar
rolled out nationwide pretty quickly...

Yes but that limits you yo the Sprint Netowrk and saddles you with
Sprint customer Service. |

Fortunately, one doesn't need sprint customer service except for setup. I
deal with them less than once a year. |

Then you have other reasons to leave Sprint than just the plan pricing
it would seem. I've used my Sprint phones in every state east of the
Mississippi for both voice and data, with few problems, either on their
own network or roaming, so I have no complaints. As far CS goes, I've
rarely had a need to call them, and the few times I have were
satisfactory, so I have no complaints there either so far. If you've got
a few hours, I could tell you about my experiences with AT&T and Unicel
though, if you want some horror stories...

Not everyone is so lucky.
Billing errors. Involuntary contract extensions.
Local service issues. Phones dying (as happens with over heating 1900
MHZ phones) cause many folks to have to do battle with Sprint PCS. |

I am already with Verizon, but, why should most people care? They don't need
those kind of minutes. I have a 700 minute family plan with phones on it and
still don't go over 700 minutes.

Ah ... I should have known. It is the sock puppet once known as Phillipe.
Don't take of what this guy says as fact. He is known to spawn sock puppets
to support his own assertions and to change names frequently to avoid kill
files.

However, Sprint customer service is notorious for being horrific. |
