That's a total ripoff. Wireless data is useless with the insane latency.
Hmm, have you even used EV-DO or 3G? I game and use VoIP just fine on my Sprint EV-DO connection. Ping times as low as ~60ms to the first hop and ~80-90ms to google. Thats not bad at all, and not far behind DSL that is not useing FAST PATH. And on top of that, download speeds of ~2.5Mbps most of the day.
But can't you only use 5GB of bandwidth before you start to get hit with insane overcharges?

I go over 5GB monthly. I normaly use 40-50GB of data every month and Sprint has yet to say anything to me.
