family plan changes ahead?

I'm in Chicagoland and planning to port to a USCC 2 line family plan soon. I've had some indications that the $60 plan for 550 minutes may be going away soon (e.g. they seem not to be printing this one on their in store handouts and one retail person had trouble finding it on the USCC computer). Does anyone know if these are being phased out, and if so, how soon?

I'd like to wait until late May to start up the USCC accounts. I'm under contact with Verizon until the end of May and hate to pay for 2 services for any longer than needed but want the most minimal family plan available since we just don't use that many minutes.

You might have gotten a newbie wherever you went, but the $59.99 national fp is slated to go away as of 4/28 unless it is extended with the q2 promo. By the way, you get 750 minutes on that plan because of the 200 bonus minutes. I am guessing that he did not know or did not tell you that either. Take advantage while you can. THIS IS FOR THE CHICAGOLAND MARKET ONLY!!!

Thanks much. I suspected something was up when I saw that the rebates on a number of phones end on April 28 as well.

Any idea what's inline for Q2 phone specials? I'm inclined to the 323i based on what I've read since we really only need phones with good RF, but my wife's accustomed to a Nokia.

Is the 6165i at the stores yet? Is it good? The slider nature of the 6265 would probably not work so well for her.

Is the national 550 family plan still around for $59.99/mo.? Are the 200 bonus minute still around too? (Chicago market)

Any additional rebates or price drop on the 6165i?

Thanks.
