[quote=Black]I'm not sure what your point is. Verizon doesn't let you use a smartphone with a non-data plan, and my bills are usually $46-- why would I want to double that if it works for me?
Did not know you used Verizon, but I suppose I should have if those were Verizon only models.
Then again, I pay less than $46 per line, three lines, for unlimited SMS and calling on my carrier. For the time being, that even includes unlimited data (limited time promotion). As mentioned, you might want to look into something like Page Plus and then you can bring almost any Verizon phone and skip the mandated data plan.
I have, and may do so again, since I'm out of contract-- but I don't have a need or want for a data phone at the moment. Like many of us here I already spend way too much time 'connected' and don't need to carry the internet around with me as well.
