Hello Everybody,
I have always been amazed about how ATT and other big carriers can charge
for this, after all, if you have 2 Gig of data with your package and you are
paying for it, shouldn't you be able to use that data as you see fit? Here
in Canada no carrier is allowed to charge extra for

I really wonder if ATT just wants to drive customers away because they sure as
hell seem intent on doing just that. I had a long conversation with ATT
customer service and it was apparent they could not even accurately explain the
plans. I had to talk to two different reps to get the

Where things get incredibly silly is as you increase your data from perhaps 4Gb
to 6Gb the base cost goes down but the per phone charge goes up. So, the only
way these data plans make sense is for people with lots of devices. ATT really

that ATT will also keep some sort of plans similar to those but force those

Hi, this sounds like you might be looking for help on Twitter, not

Regarding TweetList specifically,

Hi, you can somewhat use the Netflix app on an iOS device. It takes some
work-arounds, but can be done. If you have a Roku, you can get Netflix
there, but it's not accessible to the blind. If you have an Apple TV
then you can use Netflix there. We have Netflix and we all like it very
much.
It still suffers from the deficit of needing sighted assistance to configure it.
