Hey everybody, first post here and want to say thanks for the great forum!
I got my Xperia Arc S yesterday and have been using it since. I had a "dumb phone" with the "Unlimited Data for Non-smartphones" before this. Now, when I put my SIM card into the Arc S, I was able to set up the 3G connection and have been using the internet. But, when I check my online account through AT&T's website, it shows that I am using a "Palm Treo 650" What's up with this? I was under the impression that since I bought this phone unlocked and is not offered by AT&T, that AT&T would not recognize what kind of phone I am using.
My concern is that AT&T will "force" a smartphone data plan on me.
Are there any other similar users that have encountered this, or is there anybody that can offer some assistance or advice?
Thanks!
