Looks like they start at $69.99 for 450 Everything Data.

All the Data and Text you can eat WITH Any Mobile, Anytime and 450 regular anytime minutes.

Don’t know about you, but all my friends are on mobiles, so I don’t burn too many anytime minutes anymore…
It will NOT necessarily be two years since the Pixi (or Pre) should be set up with at least the 450 Everything Plan ($69.99).

After three months at that price plan, that puts the you in Sprint Premier (http://www.sprintenterprise.com/premier/), which has upgrades every _12_ months!

:-)
Er.. "Give me my..."
Awesome. So if you're around that one tower they've upgraded or on the Isle of Misfit toys, you've got a shot!

Give my Sprint's 3G network any day of the week.
For some reason, the bottom of that pict makes me think, "Hello, Dave..."
Why stay with AT&T? 3G services are slow to none due to over-saturation. Plans are among the most expensive in the Biz. And apparently now can't make calls either...

Go to Sprint.com. Cheaper plans ($20 to $40 cheaper/month) and better 3G service, which is why you're getting an Android phone in the first place, right?
Considering the ability of criminals to continue to run their "businesses" outside of the prison via cell phones (which causes continued police activity i.e. tax outlays), not to mention fraud (which raises all of our mobile bills) or other unnamed crimes, it IS a good thing that they've done something about this.
Eludium-Q36 - Agreed. I'd like to see a review of the phone. HD out is no inexpensive thing. Not only that but getting an HD camcorder in a phone has got to be worth some kind of premium. If Darren doesn't want to pay that premium, I'm sure the Sanyo flip his mom bought him will work just fine...
They already manage access. It's called 5GB limits for flat rates and per MB rates after that. Even some terrestrial ISPs do that. Mine, in fact does, and I utilize the resource appropriately.

Restricting access is completely different and the wireless providers should be held to the same accountability as everyone else. If I got over the limits accessing the site I want, that's on me, but no provider should provide a sub-par experience because I'm not hitting a preferred site.

Besides, if AT&T was really worried about bandwidth limits, they'd stop selling iPhones.
Actually, that's not true. They won the call quality award in the South the quarter before. Their call quality is on par with everyone while study after study (Gizmodo and PC World) has consistently shown superior 3G network performance, which, if I were buying a smart phone or anything mobile that browses, I'd want.

Oh, and their Everything Plans are $20 to $40 dollar a month cheaper than ATT and VZ. Best part, sign up for an Everything Plan and you're AUTOMATICALLY enrolled in their Sprint Premiere program: Device upgrades every _12_ months.

But keep hatin' and paying more for less. Me, I use the savings for more beer and cooler phones...
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
