- - Could Sprint be a game-changer? (https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/travel-technology/789326-could-sprint-game-changer.html)

I have an unlimited plan on ATT, 99$ a month, I don't use them for my data though, but I NEVER use many minutes. Maybe like 500 or something. Unlimited texts too.
When I originally got it i used about 2K minutes a month. Someone said I could probably sell it though, which I might just do.

I think there is a VERY small niche market for unlimted cell calls, I don't think this is going to SAVE sprint, or create a tidal wave in the industry to move in this direction.

I'm not sure I totally agree with you. I think if more cell carriers started doing this it would cause a couple of things to happen:

1. Death of traditional wireline. Why would you have a wireline where you have to pay for things like long distance?
2. Hasten the transition from a "phone number for a location" to a "phone number for a person"

I remember when ATT first came out with one rate and people said "no one would ever want that" and now all the carriers have it!
