Im with Verizon now, and from what I can tell it is at least 90 a month for a decent data plan.
As far as phone service goes... If I can get around 600 anytime minutes and unlimited nights and weekends, I am set. I just need something so I can access full sites and an unlimited amount.
The T-mobile + Sidekick seems good... especially when compared to Verizon. 60 a month with tmobile gets the phone service I want and unlimited data.
What are some decent alternatives?
--EDIT--
I don't need a PDA phone at all really... so these Treo's for 600 bucks, they don't really look too enticing to me!

Re: Who has the best deal on data plans?
I have the T-Mobile Internet Add-on plan which I'm using with the MDA and it works great. I know you said you don't need a PDA, but if you are a new customer a Treo will not be $600. Now, if you sign up for 2 years with T-Mobile you can get the MDA for $299.99. If you don't think you need all of what the phone has, the SDA is $199.99 and is a Smartphone(can be used with the Internet Add-on plan).

Re: Who has the best deal on data plans?
First of all, thanks a ton for replying! Secondly, damn that phone looks so good!
I'm going to check out reviews for it and the SDA and determine which I would prefer and then go from there. Thanks so much for showing me that phone! I might just make the jump and learn to use the PDA functions, who knows, maybe I'll start getting to work on time?
Anyone else like the MDA?
Oh also, looking at the specs, it says WAP 2.0, I may be extremely dumb, but I want like... REAL webpages... is this possible with this phone?

Re: Who has the best deal on data plans?
thanks for the reply!
I also realized today though that the MDA is 50 dollars more than the sk2 with a two year contract, and on top of that, the data plan for the sk2 is 10 dollars cheaper...
I'm liking the MDA a lot from what I've seen but more money is more money... is it really worth it?

Ok I could be wrong, I was under the assumption that WAP browsing was text based? Like I said I could be very wrong...

What do you mean BB plan without the hotspots? Why would you need hotspots if you were able to get full internet anywhere you have a decent signal?

Re: Who has the best deal on data plans?
How does one set this up? I have the data cable cord and i415. I am confused how I can use the phone to tether to my laptop (windows xp) althoug many forum posts elsewhere say this is possible.
Thanks.

Netxel Dashboard software for dialup. You can also make a windows connection with the dialer. Google or a search will get you directions on that.Last edited by roberts1953; 08-08-2006 at 07:33 PM.
