Hi,

I'm actually considering upgrading from my antique Nextel 7520 to the Sprint 8830 (lost the DC but same cost for unlimited calling plan) and having the ability to tether on Sprint's network was a big plus.

Is there a workaround to avoid Sprint's monthly fees to use the phone as modem? I love their new 'Simply Everything' plan and the price is just right for me for considering what I am currently paying with only 500 minutes of outgoing calls, free incoming.

"Simply Everything Plan":
