I'm looking at Boost Mobile to replace my Virgin Mobile service, and as well as being only $.10/minute, there is unlimited web access for $.35/day of usage. Has anyone else looked at or used this plan?

I'm sure the data speeds are slow for streaming media, but I'm interested if it's usable with the n810 for web browsing. Even better if I can get some Skype/Gizmo use out of it.

You can get unlimited data added to your phone, for 20$ per month from t-mobile. (on top of talk and text costs) But 3g is only in major cities. If you do not live in the coverage area, its not that great of a deal
