My wife and I are both on the Everything Data Shared Plan with Sprint and I really have no complaints. We both have the EVO's with the unlimited plan, both have the 'Total Equipment Protection' plan and I have the hotspot activated on mine. My bill is usually $210 depending on if I make international calls for work or not, then it's obviously higher.
Lake Chuck Duck, I didn't know there was a 4G tower in the Lake Charles area. When did they put that up?
I used 4G in Corpus Christi and man does it make a difference! Blazing compared to 3G!

Is your shed a metal building? That will drastically drop your signal.

Last time I was in the Verizon store one of the reps told me they were supposed to have 4G in Lake Charles around June or July.

Sprint sucks as far as service. If you get off the beaten path just a tad then all you have is a paper weight instead of a phone.

I've had an EVO almost since day one. Great phone, plenty of features and my Sprint service has been great also. I've had Sprint since they came to the Lake Charles market. I can't tell you how the EVO compares to the iPhone as I've never used one.

Most top android phones will do everything an iphone will do and probably more. Most aren't as fluid and polished as the iphone though. If sprint sells the samsung galaxy S2 that would be the android to get. Definitely spend plenty of time playing with the phones in the store before you buy.

Sprint sells Iphones too.

I had Mercury, which was bought out by US Unwired. THey would not take an online payment, so I had to drop them. There were times I got my bill in the mail the day I left for work, and it would be overdue by the time I got home.
I went to Centennial and had good luck with them, as long as there was nothing wrong with my phone. When I had an issue, all hell would break loose. Their local customer service sucked. After a few years of fighting with them I went to Sprint, which bought out US Unwired..
Had good luck so far. It gets the best signal along the coast, where I need it most.
I thought the plan costs were too high, till I seen what some of you guys pay.
