Don't quote me on this, but where I'm from (Canada on Telus Network) you have to have a smart phone/data package to be able to get this phone for cheap i.e. on a contract. The only other way to avoid the data package is to buy the phone outright like I did. I believe it was like 499.99 retail when I got it, it should be cheaper now.
I got it for cheaper because my brother got me it at cost + 10% and I'm just on pay-as-you-go (I hate being locked in) only downside is no MMS but there was a problem with MMS anyway on the phone.
Other than that, since you're past 30 days (no return/exchange or cancel plan) I think you might be S.O.L.
