For some, the hardest part about picking the right plan can be choosing which add-ons you'll need. There are so many additional options to consider: text messaging, data, picture messaging, web-based e-mail, web access, etc. The list can go on and on. Verizon Wireless has taken steps to make it a little bit easier and this is definitely a good thing. Now they're offering customers Mobile Web 2.0 for about $5 a month, plus airtime. Use it to check web-based e-mail, view online content, search for other information from your cell phone and a few other things. You'll still need a separate messaging plan for texts, but $5 a month for the other access is a pretty good deal - especially if you find yourself at the end of the month with a bunch of spare minutes.
