Sprint to Offer Free Minutes to Any Mobile Phone on Any Carrier

This is really great news for the Sprint data plan users. I have the unlimited everything for $99, but I mostly call other mobile lines. With this change I can drop my plan down to the $69 bracket and still be fine on minutes. The free minutes are added to your plan at the start of the billing cycle if you have one of the unlimited data plans.

With an increase in the use of Skype and Google voice which circumvents the minute counts anyway, Sprint made a good choice to push through with this.
