I will probably still get the phone, because I am getting annoyed at my Pre, but still, they needed to explain what the premium charge is and explain to me why I care. I am on wifi 90% of the time, and if I go over my data cap, charge me for it. The most I have ever used on my Pre, is like 500MB. Wifi networks exist all over. I would wager that if you work in an office, or at home you have a wifi network. I know we have one at school where I spend most of my time, not to mention in hospitals where I will spend most of my time. I think it should be an optional upgrade to uncap your data plan and give access to 4G. Or just plain give uncapped data and give everyone access to 4G. Again, it is forcing me to buy something I don't need.
It is very similar to requiring an unlimited voice plan because a phone will be popular with teenage girls who talk a lot.
