On the prepaid front, excluding device costs, it’s a little more even. Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:VZ) and AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) both offer unlimited talk and text plans with 2 GB of data for prepaid customers for $60 per month. T MOBILE US INC (NYSE:TMUS)’s comparable $60 plan includes 2.5 GB of high-speed data, although it allows unlimited data beyond that at slower speeds.

Big Red’s move signals the third carrier to adopt a new early upgrade program, and now Sprint Nextel Corporation (NYSE:S) is the only national carrier left to unveil a similar offering. With all other three rivals launching upgrade programs, Sprint will inevitably follow suit.
