I bet verizon will go unlimited once 4G is deployed widely and a new IPhone is 
released.  Existing 3G space is much more expensive because there's less shared 
bandwidth in each cell.  I hope we see unlimited or really high caps with 4G.  
We have a modem at work that's LTE nd we have LTE service in San Francisco but 
the cap is something like 10 gigabytes.  I hope verizon elects to go with a 
larger cap long term but money almost always wins.
