Hi all, just trying to see which route I should take. Can anyone let me know if this pricing breakdown is all correct?

2-year commitment:

Upfront Device Cost: $299
Device Tax: $67.50
Activation: $40
Unlimited Data Plan ($80*24 months): $1920

Total: $2,326.20

2-year commitment:

Device Cost w/ Next ($31.24*24 Months): $750
Device Tax: $67.50
Activation: $0
Unlimited Data Plan ($80*24 months): $1920
Next Credit: -$50

Total: $2,687.50

So for someone who doesn't care about upgrading all the time and is fine with upgrading every 24 months, am I correct in saying a 2-year commitment is better with a savings of over $360?

Next really only makes sense if you're on a shared data plan 15GB or higher. And even then its really only better than comparable legacy family plans with more than 3 lines.
