$29.99 Droid Verizon Plan

[SEGA]

Ok I was just about to purchase my Droid, but I decided to call Verizon to ask some questions..


I come to find out that on my phone now, I have the $14.99 Unlimited Online plan, but when I switch phones the $14.99 offer is gone, because they have new plans that are $9.99 for 25mb download limit, and $19.99 75mb limit. This doesn't concern me much other then the fact that if I do change my mind and go back, that $14.99 unlimited offer is gone for good, can not get it back, well that's what Verizon told me.

Now the main question I have is, what does the $29.99 plan offer?
If there a reason to get the $39.99 plan? (I can not offered)
Whats the bad part about the $29.99 Droid Plan, am I missing on some feature, is there a limit to Mega Bites? etc..

A "smartphone" plan is your ONLY option for Droid I believe. (I suppose the reasoning is if you don't want a smartphone, why buy a Droid?)

For 450 voice minutes plus data (not including messaging) the plan is $79.99. If you add on messaging, $99.99. Goes up from there if you add voice minutes. I believe the data is unlimited on the smartphone plans (there is a sticky in one of these forums that explains). There is no $14.99 with download limit plan for the smartphones.

If there are any VZW reps here I hope they correct me, but I believe I am correct based on what is on Verizon's website.

Thanks that explains the 29.99 plan so what do you get extra for the more exspensive plan?

It's one of the prices (literally) one must pay to have a more advanced handset/smartphone.

The link is working for you?

I tried it in Firefox and IE, it says page not found... ?

So far the higher plan is for people that need verizon to host a exchange server for them, so they can sync with the verizons. 98% of the people on this forum will not need the more expensive plan.

I got the 450 minute "basic" plan which was $40, then the smartphone data plan was $30 more, and I got the 250 text messages add on for another $5. So a total of $75 for 450 min/unlimited data and 250 texts/mo. I believe this is the cheapest way to go.
