Just wondering who has one...we are just replacing our phones and while it would be nice to have a smart phone I just can't justify the cost of a data plan yet.

A smartphone is the type of thing that after a month of having one you wonder why it took years to get one.
I'm the opposite.
I had a Blackberry for work for four years. At first I thought it was very convenient for a number of things, then I just got annoyed by being so "connected." Granted, I used to receive 100+ emails a day around the clock for my job.
I need a phone for making phone calls and texting people, which I really do very little of both. I don't need nor want computer capabilities on a mobile device. I have zero desire to own a smart phone again.
Its not....You can't beat a blackberry for e-mails...hands down its the best for that....But as far as web, games, apps ect a smartphone is way better.I don't consider a blackberry a smartphone :flame:

I'm on a family plan with 4 lines and 700 minutes/month and unlimited text...total cost with taxes is over $150/month. Tacking on a $30/month data plan just wasn't something I wanted to do...and I would have had to add on a data plan to each line that I upgraded to a smart phone.Btw if you want a prepaid plan with Verizon service at a good price, check out pagepluscelluar. Reuse any older Verizon phone including non 4g smartphones. They have an unlimited talk text and 500 mb data per month for 55$.
