Default Old Ipaq and old phone

I have been connecting my trusty Ipaq 5500 via bluetooth to my Motorola E815 for the last 4 years. I turned on DUN and just connect to the Verizon network using the #777 method. It uses minutes (which are free nights and weekends) so I don't pay the bucks for the data plans. I don't think I am getting the EVDO, just the regular broadband with this method. It has been 4 years and Verizon hasn't given me a warning to stop even though I average about 500 data minutes (mostly free ones) a month. I tried to upgrade my phone, but could not find a new Verizon phone that would allow me to connect. Just hope the old Ipaq and E815 keep on trucking.
