No contract required. On-demand activation & cancellation, $30/mo unlimited* (or $15/250MB/mo) data. THAT is a big seller; I’ll shell out the extra $130 so I know I can get on-the-run data when it’s worth thirty bucks to do so.
(* - whatever cap “unlimited” means, like the Verizon rep I talked to Sunday who insisted “unlimited means unlimited ... you’re not really going to download more than 5GB, right?”)
You could just tether your Blackberry to it and access the internet that way. That would save you the $30/month.
Is Verizon going to carry it, or do you know?
LOL how much would all the A/V content add up to in a month? I hope ma-Bell is working on her infrastructure.
As an existing iPhone user - I WOULD LIKE TO SEE TETHERING! Tether the iPad to the iPhone for on the go 3G. That makes way too much sense to me. And I hope that that will be a software switch option available down the road.
