Anyone have the PPC-6700? If you do, how do you like it?

Do you have to get the $59.99 plan to use EV-DO internet on the phone itself, or is the $15 plan sufficient? Does the $15 plan have unlimited data?

See this thread. There are hundreds of people who have one posting here....

The direct answer... Data plans are $15-$20 (depending on content) with unlimited browsing/data on the phone.

It is $25/month if using the phone as a modem to computer but it doesn't appear to be unlimited. I'm trying to find out if the $60/month plan can be purchased for the phone for unlimited PC/laptop connection. Though ya might be better off just to get a laptop card as well because then you can talk on phone while browsing on laptop.

I've been evaluating the 6700 for our company. I prefer the simplicity of Palm but Windows Media 5 is better than previous versions of PPC. It's starting to grow on me and EVDO on phone is quite nice, especially for streaming audio/video and downloading email attachments.

Hey, thanks for the reply!
What do you think about the screen size? Is it large enough to do web browsing and other tasks, or is it a little too small?

The $25.00 modem charge maxes out at $70.00.

^Thanks, good to know. Do you know if any have actually had that charge as a top limit?

No, but I have a Sprint business account with 24 phones and what Sprint calls "your own CS rep" and was told this by her. In the past when she(the same rep on my account) says something and it doesn't happen they correct the bill. It is in the contract also.
