I don't like it cause it's a never ending fee. I plan on keeping the Epic for atleast 2 years, so after two years I will have paid $440 assuming it retails at $200. I understand Sprint is cheaper than the other providers, but from my experience and others Sprint's service isn't as good as say Verizon. 4G isn't available in my area or most areas, so I think the fee should be optional, but the best money making move is to charge everyone. Assuming everyone will use more data and charging them all a fee because it has a nice camera, processor, and a kickstand sucks. I'll be paying it cause I want a top of the line phone, sucks, but nothing I can do.
Don't think you need to worry about that. The Instinct HD records HD video on MicroSD and it works great.
