I also have an Ipad with a $30/month data plan through AT&T over and above my Sprint phone. They couldn't match Sprint's price, or so they said.

We are paying $175 for two sprint phones, unlimited data, talk, text, (which I don't think we use much of), plus the $30 for the iPad, and another $20/month for 3 gigs of hot spot when we use it. It used to be you were only charged for the days you had the hot spot on, but now you're charged for the whole month.

So maybe I need to rethink AT&T. My husband uses the phone a lot for SCORE work, but I rarely talk on my phone. In fact, mostly I just use it in the car to check email.
Sounds like you would really save by switching. I received the device in FedX the next day. I'm going to do a trial run with it this week to see how it works.
