What do you guys think of Verizon's new upgrade program "Edge?" They quickly followed suit after T-Mobile released "Jump." Do you feel this is something you would take advantage of? Wonder what the role is and how it will affect unlimited data customers?

Sounds NOT good.. Gotta pay full retail, in 6 months can upgrade if 50% of device is paid off which means remainder balance would roll over... A person could get in very deep with that idea.. Not cool.. why FULL retail price?? Should be some insentive, sounds like a trap...

I agree. The math I did resulted in double dipping. Seems as if you would pay for 4 phones in what they make seem as 2. I think I will stick with full retail and keep my unlimited data.

Not to mention your already paying their subsidy fee that's built into the plan price. Why do you think tmo is so much cheaper per device.

Still doesn't change that your paying for a subsidy. It's all about profit.

That's why I said I would keep my unlimited data and pay full retail.

Same here. Between two lines we use 40gb monthly I'm a week in and already used 10gb but I lost all my internal storage going to 4.3 and had to redownload from drop box/amazon/gdrive. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 4 Beta

That sucks! Glad you had her in the cloud though! It really sucks going and dropping 6 to 650 on a new device, but hey, it's who we are and what we do. You can't take the damn money with you when you go, so might as well spend it on something that makes you happy. I like phones, guns, food and women! :)

im gonna be rocking old phones for a while. ive got a HUGE upgrade in the works for my gaming PC. Besides helping with this site has given me more satisfaction than crackflashing my phone, so i only need it to work well and get timely updates.
