Amazon.com Rezound $229.99 upgrade price ...

---

so I see Amazon's offering this phone for $229.99 as an upgrade($199.99 if you are new)...
I am wondering though, if we do the $229.99 deal, is it possible to keep current plan or are we forced to choose one of the new tiered data packages?

Have to ask VZW to make sure you don't lose unlimited.

From my understanding VZW does not currently force grandfathered customers with the unlimited plan to change when they upgrade to a new device. I've verified this with VZW Customer Service last month. This doesn't mean it will always be this way so I would take advantage somewhat soon before they close the loophole.

Maybe Jayochs or another member can chime in to verify.

heh.. I figured it out. it first asks you to pick your minute plan, then your data plan. I wasn't getting past the minute page because my minute plan is not listed(I have 200 minutes for $29/month)... but once you get to the data page, you can just check off the tab that specifies you want to use your exsisting unlimited.
considering id be saving $70 off of Verizon's price I could just select the 450 minute - $39 plan & then call Verizon afterwards to get it changed back.

I have not jumped onto this ship yet. That said, VZW rep swore to me less than a week ago that if we have unlimited 3G then we will have unlimited 4G. She said there was nothing to note in the record; it was simply the way it is.

If you have unlimited data now, you will continue to have unlimited data. Makes no difference if you have a 3G or 4G phone.
