I would like one of the Palm, Q, Blackberry, type phones for their organizer, planner, calendar advanced features but don't need or can't justify the data plan costs. A Verizon rep.

Told me they changed last year and if you had one of those phones you were grandfathered in but now you had to have a data plan. I have unlimited texts and pics and was told that would now come under the data plan since they changed. Has anyone got a work around with Verizon to use one of these phones without the data plan and still use your unlimited texts and pics? Unless you are a business with many, many lines (hundreds), and spend the kind of money that could warrant such as exception.
