A screenshot obtained by <em>PhoneArena</em> seems to confirm that Verizon is in the advanced stages of development for its long-awaited shared family data plans. Speaking during a UBS conference in December, Verizon CEO Lowell McAdam said the company <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/12/07/verizon-ceo-says-shared-data-plans-could-land-next-year-significant-isis-roll-out-by-end-of-2012/">may roll out shared data plans in 2012</a>. Verizon CFO Fran Shammo in February also <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2012/02/28/verizon-shared-family-data-plans-still-on-track-for-2012/">confirmed the company’s intentions to launch the new plans this year</a>, stating, “You’ll see something launched midyear this year from us.” A family plan currently requires each smartphone user to subscribe to an individual data plan, however the carrier’s new plans will allow all family members to share a single pool of data similar to sharing voice minutes. The screen capture above reportedly shows a Verizon data calculator, which will help families figure out how much data they use and which plan might be appropriate. <span id="more-132544"></span>
