Love Your Smartphone, But Hate Data Charges? You’re Not Alone

I’m all for keeping things simple, yet as much as I love and can’t live without my gadgets — which streamline and simplify things beautifully — data plans and text/minutes packages are anything but.

Surfing the web from our smartphones is second nature now. Case in point: when you’re out with friends and can’t remember the name of that great new coffee spot downtown, who says, “I’ll look it up when I get home and email you the results?” We’re used to talking, texting, browsing and connecting almost constantly, but what we can’t get used to is blowing half a paycheck on the phone bill (especially when there are so many sweet things on Pinterest we want to try or buy).

Unlimited talk, unlimited text, and a pool of shareable data (you choose how many GBs you need) is definitely a welcome alternative. That’s the standing offer via Verizon’s Share Everything Plan, plus this bonus: connectivity for up to 10 Wi-Fi enabled devices at no additional cost (using your smartphone as a mobile hotspot).

Explore your options — there’s even a nifty calculator for non-numbers-minded types who want to get the best bang for their buck on the data piece — at www.verizonwireless.com/ShareEverything.
