no, wrong.

We have free Roaming.

Its called Extended Network. (not being mean)

Alltel has Roaming and charges for it, we do too, but dont charge for it. You won't see Roaming, Digital Roam, or Roam, insted your phone will say Extended Network unless outside the US (Canada, Mexico, ect.)

You still get Unlimited Mobile to Mobile, Nights, Weekends, and Verizons new My Circle service called Friends And Family.

Also, use BlackBerry/PDA Data and Mobile Web. Also Get It Now (Ringtones,backgrounds, games), V Cast (must bein a EVDO area)without being charged extra.
