Despite the increasing popularity of prepaid, smartphones have been notoriously absent from the mix. Thanks to Verizon Wireless, new plans may enter the picture.
According to rumors, Verizon Wireless will launch prepaid BlackBerry plans within the next three months. The e-mail and web plan will cost $35 monthly, and will be in addition to an applicable voice plan. Given the proximity to postpaid plans, I'd say that's a pretty decent deal. No word on the costs of the various devices (or what devices will be available, for that matter), but the idea of additional contract-free options seems pretty tempting to me.
With the T-Mobile prepaid options, the BoostBerry, and now this, prepaid is becoming a bit more enticing. Anyone agree?
