And the plan, in nearly all cases, is much more expensive that what you probably had before. I have 8 phones on my plan (been a Sprint customer for 10 years), and am getting too good of a deal to rock the boat. It sickens me that I can't get this phone without paying $100 (at least) for it, on an entirely different plan than the rest of my phones are on. And since that's the case, I might as well just start a new plan on AT&T, pay the same, and just take my own phone off of my Sprint plan. No reason to get "iPhone light" when I can get the real thing for basically the same (big) cost.
