I'm not jealous. My wife has Verizon. Im a BIG data user. I'm staying w the unlimited "Sprint" until they aren't anymore... Id be paying $80 a month just for my data on Verizon! Not to mention I can call any cellphone and its free. I live 20 miles from Houston now and while I may not have REally fast data speeds all the time, it always does what I want it to do.

What is this 4G that you speak of? My EVO 3D has never seen that No, really it hasn't.

Yeah Verizon's 4g is blazing fast but isn't unlimited it gives you the option between 2 and 4 gb. Even with 4gb with those speeds we'll be capped in a matter of days.

My parents have Verizon with my dads Charge, and there's a nifty little work around to get unlimited data on Verizon.

A while back,, they had a promo that added the unlimited 4g hotspot for 29.95 a month. Yes, it added the service, but it also upgraded your data from 4 gig(his) to unlimited. Then, you turn around and take the hotspot feature off and your left with unlimited data.

He hasent had any issues with it and he's had it like that for the past month or so. Shows unlimited in the myvzw app as well as his bill.

And yes...its crazy fast and my Sprint 3g is a joke.

I had sprint for about 3 years in central illinois and over the last few months sprint's data speed were down to 187kbs super slow!!! I use my phone alot when I'm out and I finally couldnt do it anymore so I switched to verizon and the 4g is insanely fast 25mbs!!!


Also you might want to check but your plan discount usually does not apply to data side of your plan. But i noticed that the 5gb plan allows you the discount. At the time i started they had the double data so instead of 5gb your allowed 10gb. So I have 10 gigs of data for 39 bucks. I was on the 4gb before at the regular 30 month. So for 9 extra bucks ill take the 6 more gigs.

If you have VZW 4g in your area its worth checking out as opposed to sprint being so slow I could not even stream tune in radio.

Yeah we never got 4G here in Milwaukee so it sucks otherwise I'd be happy, but the 3g for me never gets over 1500 down.

If Verizon had prices like sprint I'd be all over them.
? I pay less than 76 a month for a single line unlimited all, I'm pleased with all that and im sticking with sprint hopefully they are truthful about this network vision stuff...

I tried verizon 4g today in Tacoma,WA....

It was half as fast as my sprint 4g... I was actually shocked to see that result. I was blocks away form the verizon corp. store. it was only tipping th scales to the tune of 4 mbps
