If you had the unlimited plan and upgraded to a iPhone 4, you didn't lose unlimited data. Not unless you changed your plan when you upgraded. I'm pretty certain their are people on this list with iPhone 4s with the unlimited data plan who can confirm this. hth Ricardo Walker [email protected] Twitter, Skype, and AIM: rwalker296 Google Voice: 1-646-450-2197 On Jan 11, 2011, at 8:54 AM, denise avant wrote: > hi, > the way this may all play out is with competitive pricing. for example, when > i switched to the iphone and thus at&t, i got 100 fewer minutes and a $20.00 > price increase. at&t tried to tell me i was getting a good deal because i get > calls free if i am calling another of its customers. but most of my contacts > do not have at&t. > also, there was nothing for those of us wishing to upgrade from the 3gs to > the 4g. and if you did that, kiss your unlimited data plan good-bye. > i do not know how clear the call signal is on verizon. a friend of mine has a > blackberry with US Cellular, and talking on her phone is like talking on a > land line. > so i suspect these will be considerations when discussing customer > satisfaction. > > On Jan 11, 2011, at 7:42 AM, Carolyn Haas wrote: > >> Hi Scott: >> I'd have to agree with you that at&t has generally given me very good and >> responsive customer service when I've had to call in.

THe point is none of these companies are more interested in making as much money as possible. What will be interesting is if Verizon can live up to the hype. What I hope as a result of this is more competition in plans. For example, Verizon apparently is going to offer unlimited data to new iPhone customers and I wonder how long this will last. I would hope it would push AT&T back to offering the same to current and new customers. Now I do have an unlimited data plan, but I always felt it was unfair to introduce such crappy plans at 200Mb and 2Gb for those price points. Another thing that will be very interesting is what net neutrality will do to the cell industry and that is something brewing in the pipeline. >>> Scott >>> >>> >>> >>> >>> >>> On Jan 11, 2011, at 2:18 AM, James Mannion wrote: >>> >>>> The link worked fine for me as well.
