AT&T’s New Data Plans
I saw on cnet that AT&T is unveiling a bunch of new data plans for their smart phones. While they are playing this up as a drop in price what they are really doing is dropping their unlimited Internet access plans. I’ve never used them so I’m not sure that their unlimited plans were really unlimited, but it looks like “unlimited” is going away.
Cnet thinks this is a good thing and will lower bills, I don’t.
They may get lower bills at first, but with more and more video on the web these days and more and more phones that will be able to play it, usage will grow rapidly.
Maybe they can’t handle the traffic, but I believe this is a move that’s really gong to annoy their customers and backfire. Looks like AT&T has seen what their customers want and are going to gouge them for it.
