Is it possible to switch my plan to the 'even more plus' (which doesn't have the 2-year contract) and also get the cheaper data plan ($29.99 + $10)? Wouldn't they charge me the $200 ETF fee? Would I still get 3G data with the $10/month plan? I suppose even with the ETF it would be worth it over the next 1.5 years of saving $30/month...

Thanks for any help!
Have you tried change your phone to a dumb phone on their web site? The website can't recognize N900, so you can change it to whatever the phone is.
I don't think the data plan is part of contract, but it's just a smartphone is required to have a smartphone data plan.
e.g., many people on AT&T who sold their iPhone have switched to regular data plan.
Once you change to a dumbphone, you should have the $10 unlimited web service option.

I did everything on web when I got my N900 last Dec ($39.99 EM+ w/ text), change my phone to a Shadow and selected the $10 Shadow unlimited data plan. Everything works fine including tethering since then.
