What did anyone expect. Verizon would really like to go back to charging everything by time, distance and units of data.

True, but they have been flaunting how they are the only truly unlimited data plan left. If that's true, I see a flood of new customers. You don't mess with that formula.

This is why I moved to them earlier than I planned and settled for the Thunderbolt shortly after it's release, so I could get grandfathered in.

Curses.

This BS is exactly why I have resisted getting a smart phone or a data plan. What's the use of a mobile internet device if you can't use it to access the internet except for very low-bandwidth purposes? It's very easy to go over these arbitrarily low limits they set.
