New Treo 650 Rate Plans

Posted in News, Palm by macG on the October 22nd, 2005

Yesterday, EarthLink Wireless just announced that they have upgraded their middle tier rate plans for the Treo 650. Their 800 minute plan with unlimited data turned into a 1000 minute plan with no price increase. Their 1100 minute plan with unlimited data turned into a 1500 minute plan with just a $5 price increase. They also announced that they will start offering a $10/month unlimited text message plan for the Treo 650. The pay-as-you-go text message plan dropped from $0.10 per message to $0.02 per message.


EarthLink Wireless is a Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO). MVNOs are wireless companies that have their own brand, marketing, retail outlets, and phone offerings, but use another operator’s infrastructure (towers and network) instead of building and operating their own.

For the Treo 650, the providing network carrier is Sprint, but the service provider is EarthLink Wireless. In other words, the coverage map is the same as Sprint, but EarthLink Wireless handles all the billing and customer support.

Some sites are offering the Treo 650 with these plans at $69 after rebate.
