Sprint Nextel Cuts Phone-as-Modem Pricing

Sprint is providing another incentive for its customers to stick around by lowering the cost of its phone-as-a-modem service from $50 per month to $15 per month. However customers must own a Power Vision (CDMA2000 1x EV-DO) phone with connection capabilities to their laptops.  Additionally, the $15 offer is only available with certain data plans, including the Sprint PRO Pack ($30 per month), Blackberry Personal Pack ($30 per month), Worldwide Blackberry Personal Pack ($70 per month), Primary Data Plan ($50 per month) and the Worldwide Data Plan ($70 per month).

The phone-as-a-modem service has a 5-gigabyte monthly data usage limit and a 300 megabyte off-network roaming usage limit.
