Help me with understanding the plans when buying my Droid?

Sorry this is double posted in the vzw forum, but it's not terribly active...

So, I am on the VWZ site pricing out 2 Moto Droids with a "Nationwide Connect Family Share Plan 1400", which is 1400 minutes, unlimited txt/vid/pic messaging, and unlimited data for $139. After I select this plan and select my phones it then puts me at a screen where I am forced to choose between $45 "unlimited data usage" or $30 "email and web for smartphone". I cannot advance from this screen without selecting one of these options and I have to select one of the options for each phone, which would mean an additional $90 on my bill for the unlimited option.

If "unlimited data" is included in the nationwide family share 1400 plan why am I being forced to buy another 2 data plans on top of it?

I can swallow $140 for unlimited everything + 1400 mins for 2 droids, but not $230!!!

Help?
 
the connect plans are for non-smartphones. you shouldnt even be able to get droids under this plan because the unlimited data only applies to normal phones. When you but smartphone from vzw you HAVE to get a data plan (usually $30)

change to the select family shareplan and then select 1400 minutes
