Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
The Saga Of The Broken Mac has almost come to a close here. Thank goodness for Applecare, because we wound up:
- replacing the graphics card
- replacing the logic board
- sending the monitor to Apple for repair
I'm now on hold with Applecare waiting for a product specialist because when they sent the monitor back, they didn't include my power cord. (Fortunately I had a spare lying around, but still. Not nice to steal your customers' things!)
so i upgraded to the Blackberry Pearl and now AT&T is telling me that in order to use the internet browser, i have to have an unlimited data bundle to use it. the unlimited data bundle? costs as much as my minutes plan. WTFF? why can't they be like every other phone and allow you to pay as you use?
AT&T has evil data plans. Apparently most of the networks do, actually. It balks me every time I look at possibly switching from T-Mobile, where $20 a month gets me unlimited phone data (including the ability to tether to my laptop over bluetooth, which is CRAZY expensive on AT&T) AND unlimited internet at T-Mobile Hotspots. Like every Starbucks in Manhattan.

Yeah, Gris -- what plan is that? I'm just about to change my T-mobile plan because I have to get a new phone and they don't have my original plan anymore. How do I get that?

Huh. I have AT&T/Cingular, and the unlimited phone data plan costs me $20 a month.
Is it because S & I have a family talk plan? Or did I just get lucky and sign up for the $20 a month unlimited data plan before they stopped offering it, and I'm just grandfathered in?
Seriously, what are other people seeing as the cost for unlimited data from AT&T, because this discussion is confusing me.
IIRC, my unlimited data plan is $20.
AND unlimited internet at T-Mobile Hotspots.
is the part that is intriguing me. I either don't have that or don't know how to use it, and it would be useful.
Damn. I need to get away from Verizon - my unlimited data plan is $40/month!
My unlimited data on AT&T is $20 as well.
