Treo and data plan

[Weims]

I'm thinking of getting used Verizon Treo. As long as the EIN is good can I use this as an extra phone on my Family plan? Also can I add a data plan so I can get emails and web access?

I already have a Treo but no data plan. I like the ability to sync information with my computer and the preloaded applications which the newer phones do not have. So please don't try to sell me on the idea of a newer model or a droid.

Yes, you can add a data package to the line for $29.99, including unlimited usage.

I tried to use a Palm Centro to replace another phone on my family plan and they would not let me without adding the data plan.  I am frustrated because I should be able to use an old phone, regardless of type, without spending another $30 on a data plan that isn't needed.  The phone is only going to be used as that - a phone.  No emails, web access, etc. is needed.  The phone is to replace a phone that didn't last until it could be upgraded.
