$10 for 4G and $30 for hotspot?

In order to provide the best experience, HTC EVO 4G will use Sprint's industry-leading Everything Data or Business Advantage Messaging and Data plans that include unlimited Web, texting and calling on the Sprint Network to every mobile in America with Any Mobile, AnytimeSM. Everything Data plans start at $69.99 per month. A $10 per month Premium Data add-on will apply allowing customers to take advantage of a richer data experience than ever before.
Additionally, an optional pricing add-on will turn HTC EVO 4G into a mobile hotspot connecting up to eight Wi-Fi enabled devices, such as laptops, gaming devices and digital cameras, simultaneously at 4G speeds where available and at 3G speeds anywhere on the Sprint 3G network for just $29.99 per month - half the monthly cost of the current Mobile Broadband plan (pricing excludes surcharges and taxes).

Simultaneous voice and data capability in 4G and Wi-Fi coverage areas, enabling Web surfing and more while the conversation continues.
 
I hope the $10 Data addon isn't absolutely necessary. What's the point of paying $69.99 for unlimited data when the EVO costs $10/month more than any other device.
 
I think it will be very bad to charge an extra $10 a month to use 4g.

Someone needs to get to the bottom of what that statment actually means.
 
Terrible idea. You need to lower barriers to new tech adoption, not add on fees. There is a reason I don't use Verizon. Addons for every freaking thing. Why charge for something that is only just rolling out?
