There has been tons of press lately about the new unlimited cellular plans being offered by the four major carriers, Sprint, Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T. Verizon was the first to offer an unlimited plan for .99 a couple weeks back. AT&T and T-Mobile followed suit quickly with their own .99 unlimited plans. Sprint took about ten days to announce their Simply Unlimited plan and it appears to be the best deal out there.
Here is a quick comparison of the unlimited cellular plans offered by Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile.

AT&T 4.99
Sprint .99
T-Mobile 9.99
Verizon Wireless 9.99

AT&T 4.95
Sprint 9.99
T-Mobile 9.95
Verizon 9.99
I think Sprint made a good move by holding off a couple days before coming in with their Simply Everything unlimited plan. By waiting, they were able so see what the other carriers offered and then offer something better. All the other carriers charge extra for premium content and messaging functions but not Sprint.
Sprint beats the competition by at least 10% in every category. In the unlimited cellular, text messaging, picture messaging, data access and mobile e-mail category, Sprint is able to beat Verizon by bucks. That is a huge amount on a monthly basis. Even if you had to break your Verizon contract, by switching to Sprint, you would be saving money after 5 months. And the family plans! 5 saving over the AT&T monthly is amazing.
Great job Sprint!
