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? |

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. |
