I know, I was just wondering how it works. I didn't see anything about
adding data to the cheapest plan...
OK, I found this in the FAQ:
"Does Page Plus have an unlimited or add-on data plan?
While we are continuously evaluating our plans and the needs of our
customers, we do not currently offer an unlimited data plan or an add-on
data option. However, we do offer monthly plans with more than enough
data for the average user."
Which sould seem to mean that the pay-as-you-go "plans" don't offer data.

Pretty much google maps. If T-Mobile kills my $10/year plan I'd be
interested in their $10/120 days plan.

Because she smells like a new truck.
