PCS Vision vs Data Plan

[MyVeryOwnQ]

They told me when they activated my Q that I had to have a Data Plan with voice at .20 per minute or a Voice plan and pay by the KB for data.
??
They removed my PCS Vision which allowed me unlimited internet access. I called back and reactivated it, but I don't know if this is going to cost me per KB or if it will even work to get me online. I'm affraid to try and see what kind of phone bill that would be!
Does anyone have advice on what is best? I use it now to sync everything I want, and I have a separate text plan b/c I love to text, but I would also like to get on and check weather, sports scores, or surf in general.
Any ideas?

Can you go online on your pc and go to your sprint account? I looked at mine and mine says Sprint Power Vision Access Pack. With that I have unlimited data use and an I am able to surf the web at will. Your account online will show you what is included in your plan and your current usage too. But come to think of it, it doesn't show me my data usage just how many minutes I have used, and text message count as well. Though I don't know why it shows me my text as I have unlimited text too.

Well, I hope that helped a little and didn't confuse you even more.

No, not confused, just curious, haven't received my bill yet since switching to Power Vision Pack, and how long have you used it for your internet usage?
What extra does a Data pack actually do that is different?
Okay, I'm still confused, but it's not your fault.
Just ease my mind, how long have you had this plan and do you get extra usage charges?
What do you use your internet access for...etc

I have had this plan for several months and I pay $15 for unlimited internet usage. I use the internet to check my Braves and Panthers scores, check the latest news (usa today, msn, etc) and just about anything. No extra charges have popped up and I pay $15 for the unlimited text. The only time I incurred extra charges was when I installed a program call CALLWAVE (which forwards your calls to them and sends you a text message instead of getting a voice message). Well, Sprint didn't think to inform me that I would pay .20 for each call forwarded, so I quickly took that off. But so far, no other surprises and I am loving my Q!!

Thanks! That eases my mind, now I can sit back and enjoy my Q even more. I have been cautiously optimistic thus far.
Have a great weekend!
