On October 14th, I switched to Sprint. My 3-line family plan will be about $50/mo cheaper with Sprint. I don't have nearly as many mandatory fees. Sprint is also giving me unlimited date whereas Verizon wouldn't.

It was really a no-brainer decision for me.

Since switching I've used my cell phone for far more things than I ever used my WinMo phones for - even though I had top of the line models. I spent about $15 on apps in the past two weeks and I'm loaded with great stuff.

The phone is far easier to use - as is represented by the fact that my non-technical wife is able to do more and more with less explanations from me.

This is, quite frankly, one of the better purchases I've ever made.
