Samsung Instinct M800
Sprint has alot of nerve forcing customers into spending money
I cannot believe Sprint finally comes out with a decent phone and they expect customers to pay an arm and a leg for a certain plan. They say its because this phone is such a power house people may go crazy and have overage charges. I want to know why they don't make everyone have the Simply Everything or talk/data/message plans people with normal phones can rack up just as much overages. Give me a break Sprint no wonder 500,000 customer jumped ship last quarter

Why would you NOT want the Simply Everything plans if you bought this phone? If you aren't going to use messaging, web, and GPS...then buy a simpler phone. Sprint's plans are extremely competetive. Find another plan for $99.99 that gives you unlimited EVERYTHING.
...
He can't! I've realize that people will find any and everything to complain about. I can't stand people who want these techy phones, without the internet plans and text it goes to show that it's all for looks. If you want a Benz you have to have money to maintain the servicing on the car right? Basically what I'm saying is people with wine taste and beer money need to face the facts.

I agree.
It's like buying an Xbox 360, but buying no games what so ever.
The Instinct shines it's best at all multimedia aspects, not having a plan for it is a pure waste.

If it's not one thing it's another... Just can't satisfy everybody. Get over it, I'm tired of people bringing the whole people jumped ship. We're trying to move ahead if you're going to be stuck in the past talking about how bad Sprint did leave the company.

Oh man, TELL ME ABOUT IT! I bought this phone, and just had SOOOO many things I could do with it, why on EARTH would I want to be forced into such a perfect plan. Unlimited everything for a phone that does...oh wait, EVERYTHING. I guarantee you, if this phone DIDN'T come with the $70 plan, you would have bought it, and then come back to a rep like myself, or whatever store you bought it from, and cried about your overages and demanded all your money back. I'm in the habit of offering helpful information to questions asked in the forum, which is kinda the whole purpose of it...but in your case I just had to pop in a say...get a myspace, go cry in a blog THERE. Thank you.

no one made you buy the phone. people arent forced into spending a million on a ferrari enzo, they choose to. i was looking at JL audio subwoffers and they are expensive. the guy said "you gotta be a baller to f*ck with JL" no one forced anything

OK let me try to shed some light on this for all of you who think you know everything.
I have a everything business plan (that means EVERYTHING!!!!) sprint will not let me ad 6 of these phones to my plan unless i upgrade to a simply everything plan.
Simply everything plan 1st phone $99 per month each additional phone $89 per month thats $544 per month.
My business plan 6 phones $369 per month thats a $175 per month difference.
Sprints reasoning my plan no longer exists due to the merger with nextel and since i am grandfathered in it cannot be taken away also meaning it's on an older network that will not support the instinct which i feel is a crock of sh@t. So everyone please if you still feel sprint is not forcing us to switch t...

What people fail to realize in their moments of anger with Sprint, is that ALL mobile companies do the same thing. As several people have already mentioned, the iPhone plans aren't any better. In fact, they are more, because you have to pay an extra $20/month just to get unlimited text.
The whole mobile phone industry sucks, period. There is no one solid company. They all jack up their prices, they all force customers to change to new plans, they all have areas with sucky reception, they all make you sign two-year contracts to get the full discount, and they all fail in so many other areas.
The mobile phone industry is just like car insurance. If you want to be able to own a mobile phone or a car, you are going to have to pay ...

Strange how some people just realize that. EVERY phone company does that when their core plan changes. And didn't you see all the ads and the promo's? Sprint had it everywhere that you had to change the SE plan when you get the Instinct. Look at Att. If you were with ATT wayyy back when you were on their "blue" plan. When they switched to Cingular, it was the "orange" plan. Now that they are Att AGAIN, there are the "old blue", "orange", and "new blue" plans on their system. You can't even upgrade the phones on the "old blue" or "orange" with out changing and increasing your plan to the "new blue" plans. What's worst to me is that the company has the same name but you can change anything.
And now ATT wants customer's to change ...
