I was going to buy two new phones tonight.  One for my wife and one for myself.  I selected the family connect plan.  I also did this a week ago, but decided to wait for the free activation.  The connect plan comes with Unlimited Text, Picture, Video & Instant Messaging, however, tonight when I was going to go through with my order I got to the page where I select my features and I had to chose a texting package?  Also I had the ability to add the VCast package and according to Verizon's website the VCast package is not available for the Connect plan.  Any ideas? 

These were my texting options:

Text, Picture, and Video Messaging

You must select an option below  

500 Text Messages PLUS Unlimited IN Text Messaging $8.50/month

500 Messages $4.99/month \

100 Messages $1.99/month

250 Messages $0.00

Now before you go and say are you sure I selceted the Connect plan I can answer that with a definite yes.
