Data Plan Question

I'm a little confused.  I was interested in adding the 9.99 data plan to my multimedia phone since I already have vznavagator  and have already  used over 4 mg with that feature in a months time.  We have had the basic voice plan with family share minutes for just over six months. My question is if I add the data plan to my phone will my husband's phone then require a data plan?  He would never use it.  Also could I do this online or on my phone?  Thank you in advance.

First thing is that data is included in the subscription price of VZ Navigator, whether you choose the monthly $9.99 or daily $2.99 subscription. The data transport up and down with VZ Nav does not bill you any megabyte charges.
So, only add the data plan if you think you will use other features like Mobile Web, browsing/purchasing games, apps, ringtones, Mobile Email or watching V CAST Videos.
No, if you add the data plan to your phone, your husband or any other line on your account won't be required to add a data plan.
Yes, you can add the data plan on My Verizon online, you might even be able to add it with My Verizon on your handset. But if you have other megabyte usage already, call Customer Care to add it. Care can backdate the feature so it covers previous usage in the billing cycle.

WOW!  Thanks so much!  I didn't realize that the vz navigator data usage was included.  That helps me out a lot.  Also I found out that mobile email is included with the 9.99 data plan.  That sounds perfect for me.  Thanks again for answering my question & solving my dilemma.:smileyhappy:
