When Sprint first showed us the EVO, I clearly remember them saying that the phone supported hot spot. Sprint conveniently (or not) forgot to tell us that there would be a cost associated with having the hot spot. $29.99 is cheaper than other alternatives, but it is still $29.99 more than free.
Then Sprint mentioned that the front facing camera would be able to be used with the Qik application. Here again, I don't remember Sprint saying anything about the $5 for using the Qik application.
I wonder what else Sprint is not telling us and will start charging for? They might even say that Froyo is there, but if you give $print $$, they will provide you with the means to update...
I know things move fast around here, but the $5 charge thing for Qik was overblown a bit. Their basic 2 way video calling will be free, but their "premium" services which will be unveiled on June 4th will cost$5 per month. As far as the hotspot thing, I don't think anybody thought that would be free, did they? $30 is pretty competitively priced, considering their hotspot devices and plans are $60/month.
