Hot Prepaid wireless deal from Verizon

[syscrusher]

It's pretty exciting to me since I maintain an old Alltel phone for travel because it works in the most Western US areas where others don't. My existing smartphone is Virgin Mobile with $45 for 1200 min/unlimited text/ data throttled down after 2.5gig. I usually use 300-400meg in a month but when my brother is needing coaching or I'm doing a lot of yakking otherwise I go over 1200min and have to reset my month to get more minutes. VM uses Sprint and Sprint has deployed much more 4G infra in the past year so that works well here in the O.

The New Deal (ALLSET plan) is Verizon's network, Unlimited min & text even to Canada & Mexico, 500meg of 4G data but if you autopay you get 1gig all for $45. You can also add more data in a month, up to $20 for 3gig more if you need to $5 for 500meg. They also are offering a "bring your own" phone but I haven't seen much about that and it would have to be a CDMA (Sprint or Verizon and MVNOs) phone.

This is my dream plan, too good to be true, must be quite the weasel words in the fine print.

Might be good for cheap bastids such as myself.
