Later today, we’re going to actually levy a little praise in Sprint. However, it might be for naught. There’s a rumor making its rounds that they plan to hike their data prices across the board. Namely, their Vision and Power Vision plans, which offer standalone data starting at $15 per month, might go the way of the Dodo. All plans, rumoredly, will require voice minutes. It’s a shame. Sprint’s Vision and Power Vision plans were one of their better deals, especially for those who love the smartphone features, but don’t need the voice minutes. Once again, this is just a rumor, but it’s not an appealing one.
The ACLE and the EFF, two American civil liberties watch dogs, have filed suit against the U.S. government. They want to find out what kind of information the government has regarding cell phone tracking, and how it used it without probable cause.
Want an iPhone without a contract? Don’t buy the $599 or $600 models. Instead pay an early termination fee. It’ll come out about a hundred bucks cheaper. You just have to do it after the first month, as AT&T requires you to return the device if you cancel within that period. So at least that’s some good news regarding the iPhone pricing.
Speaking on the iPhone, there’s this rumor at The Register, via Crave, that Apple might have a slider iPhone in the works for next year. Could we be seeing the start of a line of iPhones, like the iPod?
If you have an unlimited AT&T data plan, don’t go assuming it’s really unlimited. Yeah, you read that right. It appears they charge an insane rate for roaming. Yet another reason to read every word of the fine print.
