SERO has unlimited data so I would disagree that CASUAL = data charge

I have tethered for 2 years, several 100s MB/mo and have never been charged a cent for data.

I was lusting after the Pre and swore that I would forever swear off Sprint if they Instinct'd the Pre

I did a quick cost analysis ...

assumptions:
A900M has been loyal but has got to go
Pre will retail for $150 after loyalty upgrade/rebate

cost includes phone and plan ... (x%) represents increase from keeping my A900M

2 YR COST OF:
Upgrading to Treo 755p (SERO) = $820 (14%)
Upgrading to a Pre (EPRP) = $1590 (121%)
Upgrading both SERO lines to Pre (EPRP-Family) = $2940 (308%)

We all know even EPRP is cheaper than an iPhone or android on a different carrier so I did not include those as I have no qualms with Sprint service-wise (PDX, OR).
