Over 65? That's just dumb, in two very different ways:
1) The baby boomers started getting born en masse in '46. So the age 65 limit is actually cuttin' out a lot of seniors. 60 would've been a lot smarter.

The low-use plan is REALLY low-use, i.e. doesn't take up much network capacity. And I don't think you'd get any NE2 or early upgrade benefits out of it either.

But I understand that you're just tryin' to save the guys job. If he's not takin' precautions when he posts, I feel bad for him.
Plus, the more stuff that leaks out, the less stuff they will tell us, it has already happened before. We use to get release dates of phones before they came out, then people started posting them, now we cant see the release dates anymore.
